Press Release from MJTP-


IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE MICHAEL JACKSON TRIBUTE PORTRAIT, ANONYMOUS DONOR PLEDGES UP TO $10,000 USD TO HAITIAN STREET KIDS, INC. (HSKI)

One Million Dots. $10,000 to Charity
An anonymous donor has pledged to donate one penny – up to $10,000 USD, which would represent one million dots – to Haitian Street Kids, Inc. for each person who has signed up as a member of The Michael Jackson Tribute Portrait up until the last dot is drawn. The Portrait is scheduled to be completed this year.

There is no cost to members to sign up and be represented in Michael’s Portrait, and it takes only seconds.

If 1,000,000 people have signed up before the very last dot is drawn on the Portrait, the donor will make the donation at that time. Otherwise, when Artist David Ilan confirms the Portrait is complete, the donor will be advised of the last dot number signed up – and one penny for every person signed up as a Dot in The Michael Jackson Tribute Portrait will go to HSKI.

Anyone who signs up before August 29th will have their dot placed in Michael’s image. After the Portrait is complete, when someone joins they will be assigned a pre-drawn dot somewhere within the Portrait itself, but not necessarily in the areas making up Michael’s image. Once the Portrait is complete, fans can continue to join for a long time to come.

Haitian Street Kids, Inc. (HSKI), established in 1999 by Michael Brewer, helps as many Haitian kids as possible by providing first aid, advice and hope. As funds allow, they also provide shelter and food. Long term, they wish to educate the children while lobbying the government, individuals and organizations to enforce a total and permanent ban on slavery and child abuse.

HSKI is 100% non-profit – every penny goes toward helping the children. Our donations go a long way to help save a child’s life.

Due to disasters in Haiti and the world economy as a whole, the donations HSKI receives have gone down, and that means they do not have the funds they need to help as many children in need. Donations of all amounts are appreciated. A few dollars can feed a few kids. Merely by signing up online at www.MichaelJacksonTributePortrait.com, this charity that so needs help can receive a little more. Every dot counts, every penny counts. The donor is anxious to help by making a $10,000 USD donation to HSKI. Get your Dot … and tell a friend!
