Playing for a change

"You must be the change you want to see in the world". 

Mahatma Gandhi(1869 - 1948)

Musicians of "Playing for a change" believe that it is possible to make the world a better place to live in, always with the help of music, with a song like this.

What do you think? Do you think this is worth trying? the musicians in this organization believe so and by that reason they will perform their music for free with the idea of raising money and help kids from different continents to learn to play a musical instrument. These concerts will  take place during next September. 
But it is better if you watch the video:
