Charity work (concerts, donations, etc.)

This is from an article of CBC News... a study of the University of British Columbia is related to the video for World On Fire:

In a second study, Aquino and his team were surprised to discover even a music video could inspire people to give generously — and not to the people you'd typically expect.

Study participants were shown a music video by Canadian artist Sarah McLachlan, in which it's described that all but $15 of the $150,000 budget for a video was donated to various international charities.

A second group was shown McLachlan's Adia video, which pictured her singing in front of various cityscapes — a pleasing, yet not uncommonly good act.

Those who watched the charitable video were more likely to open their wallets, Aquino found, despite the fact that the charity was somewhat controversial, reintegrating former prisoners back into the community.

"It's a group of people that generally wouldn't evoke lots of sympathy, but yet we show that when you're presenting people with an example of virtuous action, that it can make them think differently about these kinds of people — people who may be outside of their radar, as far as the kinds they would want to help."

Sarah was in NYC to attend the annual FoodBank4NYC's ninth annual Can-Do awards dinner. There are photos and a quick interview with Sarah. Sarah also performed. I bet she did the usual, BAM and Angel.
