– For the children of Iraq –<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s Enjoy Arabic Music for Charity!<\/p>\n

JVC will help organize a charity concert to enjoy beautiful music with the Arabic musical instrument called \u201coud\u201d meaning \u201cQueen of Instruments.\u201d<\/p>\n

Please experience the exotic world of Arabic culture, which is full of mystery and fascination.<\/p>\n

The concert proceeds are going to help support the activities of JVC in Iraq. Conflicts have been getting worse in Iraq because of differences in race and religion, which worst affect children. JVC regularly organizes workshops called \u201cPeace Yard,\u201d through which children can learn how to peacefully live together. Also, JVC workers can help treat their mental health problems. We would appreciate your support to build the future of all children in Iraq. Thank you for your cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
