All For Africa: Join John Legend, ?uestlove & Others

Join Okayplayer for an intimate concert event, produced by OKAYAFRICA and featuring John Legend, DJ ?uestlove, Sahr Ngaujah (star of FELA!), Bajah + the Dry Eye Crew and a cast of celebrities including Jeff Johnson, Jeffrey Wright, Marcus Samuelsson, Angelique Kidjo, Gbenga Akinnagbe, Phillip Bloch & more, business leaders and entrepreneurs as they come together to PLANT THE SEEDS OF SUSTAINABILITY on the continent of AFRICA!

All for Africa’s Palm Out Poverty Initiative is a unique project which includes the planting of 1 million oil palms in western Africa – creating agricultural jobs while also developing large scale physical infrastructure and social programs including schools, medical centers, recreational facilities, employee housing and clean water. As well as providing direct positive local and regional impact, the Palm Out Poverty Initiative is expected to create $700 million dollars in long term funding generated through the production and sale of palm oil. These funds will be utilized to develop programs, build capacity and create long-term sustainability for community level projects in clean water, community health, education, energy, micro-financing and skills training/livelihood creation. Your contribution to the Palm Out Poverty Initiative will increase in value over 35 times! For example, a $1000 donation will generate $35,000 in funding!
