Artists for aid have been hosting events for nearly 2 years now with many artists who play at these events like Faye Webster and Daniel Caesar, who both performed again this year There are so many charity events that have started since Palestine and Sudan have been suffering through more attacks, and they have been helping out and have saved families and loved ones from their situations.
