Former Idols winner
Jason Hartman will be jetting off to
Monaco over the weekend to prepare for an exclusive charity performance to
raise funds for Conservation Guardians, a global environmental trust on which
he is a board member. Conservation
Guardians houses a number of NGOs including the International Anti Poaching
Foundation and Jason’s own charity, Men Of Trees. The objective of the event is
not only to raise awareness around pertinent environmental issues around the
globe, but also an appeal for donations to assist in driving ways to find
solutions to these issues, especially across the African continent. The event,
which includes a traditional African braai, a premium auction and a live show
by Jason and his band, will take place at the Monaco yacht club on Thursday 19
April 2012 and seats come at a premium of 400 Euros a head. The star studded
event will be attended by Quincy Jones, Chris Tucker (who is also the Master of
Ceremonies for the evening), Will I Am, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and
Gjocovic as well as many other high profile international celebrities. “This is
the first event of many and we hope to take it around the world to raise a
considerable amount of money for Conservation Guardians, where every cent will
be invested in combating poaching and developing communities in order to reduce
their impact on the environment,” said Jason Hartman, who heads up Men of Trees
and is the celebrity ambassador of the International Anti Poaching Foundation.
Jason shot to fame as the controversial joint winner of South Africa Idols in
2009. His album On The Run had several hits and he is currently working on new
material for a release during the course of 2012. Jason wrote on his Facebook page: "Looking forward to our first major international concert for Conservation Guardians in Monaco on 19 April! Hello Magazine is covering the event as well as German television!Hopefully we get the footage back home!"
