Andrea Bocelli Talks Music and the Mission to Empower
World-famous Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli talks about his foundation's SMS campaign that launches this month. The initiative allows any U.S. mobile user to text a $10 donation that benefits the organization's education initiatives in Haiti.
Bocelli talks about the importance of education when it comes to all other parts of someone's life. We discuss the 4-time Grammy nominee's performance with the Pope and Haitian children earlier this year and what that meant to him as someone of Italian heritage.
Bocelli is currently on tour and will perform two shows this week at New York City's Madison Square Garden.
A new study shows different strategies may be effective at motivating people to donate, apart from all that “sadvertising.” The study from Nathan Chan, assistant professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and Casey Wichman, assistant professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology, found that people in good moods are more likely to donate to a charitable cause.
Actor Randall Park is making his feature debut as a director with the upcoming film, "Shortcomings," and spoke with Cheddar News about the movie. Other cast members also joined to talk about the film.
