After our return from Israel and the receipt of Artist fees from the shows there, I can confirm that my share of pre-tax tour profits will be split equally amongst the following charities:

Neve Shalom/Wahat al-Salam http://nswas.org

Hand In Hand http://www.handinhandk12.org

Peace Child Israel http://www.mideastweb.org/peacechild

All of the above are engaged in initiatives to bring together children of different faiths and backgrounds from the Jewish Israeli, Muslim Arab and Christian communities to further, through joint education, better understanding and appreciation of the different faiths and their cultures.

I hope that some visitors to this site will wish to support these bodies in their work to build a more tolerant, respectful and peace-loving new generational society at the heart of an area where there still exists so much bigotry, distrust and conflict.
