First Make Music, Then Make History

During the 2008 holiday season, Grammy award-winning, multi-platinum singer Ne-Yo, is led the ultimate “Holiday Drive” at VH1’s corporate hubs in NYC and LA to encourage people to donate new toys and clothing to benefit Ne-Yo’s Compound Foundation and their 2nd Annual Holiday Giving Tour helping kids in the child welfare community. In turn, for every gift received, VH1 Save The Music committed to purchase new musical instruments for one public school in Atlanta. To celebrate this gift, Ne-Yo made a surprise visit to M. Agnes Jones Elementary School during the holidays!
