Joe Madiath: Better toilets, better life



In rural India, the lack of toilets creates a big, stinking problem. It leads to poor quality water, one of the leading causes of disease in India, and has a disproportionately negative effect on women. Joe Madiath introduces a program to help villagers help themselves, by building clean, protected water and sanitation systems and requiring everyone in the village to collaborate — with significant benefits that ripple across health, education and even government.

"Stand By Me" Live in Brazil | Playing For Change





This past October during the "Peace Through Music World Tour" in the Brazilian city of Curitiba, the PFC Band performed a magical night of music in front of a sold-out crowd to benefit the creation of a new PFC Foundation music school in the community.

"Stand By Me" is a song that sparked a movement, and the flame is growing higher and higher all over the world. There are moments when music transcends the darkness and shows us the light. This is one of those moments. Turn it up and share the joy with everyone you meet.
