This
winter the price to heat the average American’s home is expected
to increase by $400 and forecasters are predicting the winter of 2007-2008
to be the coldest in five years. In addition, President Bush announced
his decision to reduce the 2007-2008 funding for LIHEAP by $1.7 Billion,
a cut that will leave over 6 million Americans without heat this winter,
force many families out of their homes, and cause thousands of elderly
citizens to literally freeze to death. the poor will have no protection
from this ill-fated weather and President Bush’s inhumane policy.
Artists
For Heat, started in 2005 by 3Kingdoms Entertainment
CEO Mikal Kamil, is a national non-profit organization that works to ensure
an adequate amount of financial assistance for heat is available to low-
income families and senior citizens across the nation. In addition, Artists
For Heat serves as a conduit to educate the public on energy conversation
and alternative energy resources
The energy crisis facing Americans today is so large,
and the need is so immediate, that it is time to bring pop culture and
its icons together with the energy industry to grab the public's attention
and induce them to give.
