Playing for Change and the musicians from La Garriga

This post is about the Playing for Change Foundation.
They started their activities about 10 years ago from a group of documentary filmmakers who had the idea to film music from people out in the streets.  What started as a small project today has grown into a global movement; they are dedicated to connect people from all over the world through music.  One of their main objectives is to help people by bringing hope through music and education.  Please visit their site at http://playingforchange.org/ and find out how they make a difference.
By the way, the last video on this post was not  filmed by Playing for Change; instead  it was put together by musicians from La Garriga, a town 35 Km away from Barcelona.  Their intention was not to intentionally copy the initiative from the original filmmakers; they only wanted  to add to their cause through the universal language that anyone understands: music.
Now sit back and enjoy their music - you may want to get involved...
