In partnership with the United Nations Foundation, Habitat For Humanity and the Dave Matthews Band's Bama Works Fund Haitian relief effort, Music for Relief is working to provide immediate aid with food, water, and emergency medical supplies, and long-term sustainable housing solutions for the people affected by the 7.0 magnitude earthquake that hit Haiti on January 12th at 4:53pm.

To help, people can download a mixtape of nine original songs by Linkin Park, Slash, Alanis Morissette, Peter Gabriel, Hoobastank, The All-American Rejects, and Enrique Iglesias. There is no set price for the album. However, donate what you can and donate generously as this catastrophic natural disaster requires that the world step up to help.

Music for Relief is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing aid to victims of natural disasters and the prevention of such disasters. Since its inception in 2005, Music for Relief has raised over $3 million for victims of multiple disasters across four continents and planted over 810,000 trees to help reduce global warming. Music for Relief was found by the band Linkin Park.

The GRAMMY Museum was opened in December 2008 in conjunction with the 50th anniversary of the GRAMMY Awards. It is a celebration of the power of music. It has four floors of exhibits, interactive experiences and films. There are more than two dozen exhibits that explore the greatest GRAMMY music of all genres: rock, hip-hop, country, classical, Latin, R&B and jazz.

The GRAMMY Foundation was established in 1989. Its goal is to cultivate understanding, appreciation and advancement of the contribution of recorded music to American culture. The foundation achieves this goal through programs and activities that engage both the music industry and the general public. The Foundation works in partnership with The Recording Academy to bring attention to issues such as the value and impact of music and arts education and the urgency of preserving our rich cultural heritage.
