The World DJ Fund has announced it will stage a week of global fundraising week from 19 – 26 Apr. The group’s 2002 fundraising activity raised £400,000 in the UK alone – used to support Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy and international children’s charities.
During the fundraising week DJs will be asked to pledge one night’s fee for the cause, while clubs will be encouraged to fund raise. With the likes of Pete Tong, Paul Oakenfold, Danny Tenaglia and X-Press 2 behind them many are likely to take part.
Talking about the scheme Xpress 2’s Dave Clarke told reporters: "It was great to be asked to help out with Nordoff Robbins, as our industry is based around good times. It is fulfilling to be able to put something back in, and to contribute to such a good cause".
