Making the Move for Ten Moves

Tweet

Ten Moves is a campaign to raise money to build 10,000 classrooms in the Philippines. Part of the Bayanihang Pampaaralan and managed by the Ayala Foundation and the Philippine Business for Social Progress, and is the response to the classroom shortages. The campaign is to gather the whole country of 2 million people to donate what they can to the movement starting with 10php every day for 10 months or donating directly to the campaign in larger sums (www.tenmoves.org)

TEN Moves as a campaign to raise enough resources to build 10,000 classrooms in public schools all over the Philippines, its main strategy is to get 2 million people to donate P10 per day for 10 months. That will be P300 per month or P3,000 for the entire 10 months. Because of the huge target and the massive mobilization that this will entail, this public fundraising campaign requires mobilizing a large number of organizations and people around the country.

It is expected to be supported widely by Filipinos and even non-Filipinos working together to address an urgent problem of the country.

Thus, the name TEN Moves! also means “The Entire NationMoves!”

With typhoon Pablo destroying schools and towns, Ten Moves prioritized their fundraising efforts. Donation made today until June 30 will directly fund rebuilding schools in Davao Oriental and Compostela Valley.

DEPECHE MODE DELTA MACHINE 

Delta Machine is Depeche Mode's highly anticipated 13th studio album. Recorded in Santa Barbara, California and New York City, the album was produced by Ben Hillier and mixed by Flood. Martin Gore said of the release, "Writing this album was incredibly daunting as I wanted the sound of this collection to be very modern. I want people to feel good about listening to this record, to get some kind of peace. It's just got something magical about it." Dave Gahan added, "With this release we've completely shifted our idea of how to create an album. When we hit a wall where we realize the album is beginning to sound too normal, we'll mess it up and really give it that organic Depeche Mode Sound. Delta Machine is no different, and I can't wait for all of our fans to hear it." 

THE STROKES COMEDOWN MACHINE 

The Strokes announce their highly anticipated fifth studio album Comedown Machine to be released on March 26th via RCA Records. "All The Time" will be the official first single off the new album.

The Strokes consist of Julian Casablancas (lead vocals), Nick Valensi (guitar), Albert Hammond, Jr. (guitar), Nikolai Fraiture (bass) and Fabrizio Moretti (drums). The band has released four studio albums, Is This it (2001), Room on Fire (2003), First Impressions of Earth (2006) and Angles (2011) which have sold over 5 million albums worldwide. The band has headlined major festivals in the United States and UK, including the Isle of Wight Festival, Lollapalooza, Hurricane Festival, Splendour In The Grass, Rockness, Outside Lands, and Austin City Limits as well as sold out New York City's Madison Square Garden. 

DAVID BOWIE THE NEXT DAY 

2013 album from the legendary Rock chameleon, his first studio album in ten years and his 30th studio recording. The album was produced by long-term collaborator Tony Visconti and was recorded in New York. In recent years, radio silence has been broken only by endless speculation, rumor and wishful thinking. A new record: who would have ever thought it? After all, David is the kind of artist who writes and performs what he wants when he wants: when he has something to say as opposed to something to sell. Today, he definitely has something to say. Throwing shadows and avoiding the industry treadmill is very David Bowie despite his extraordinary track record that includes album sales in excess of 130 million; not to mention his massive contributions in the area of art, fashion, style, sexual exploration, and social commentary. It goes without saying that he has sold out stadiums and broken ticket records throughout the world during this most influential of careers. 

All albums available on iTunes and MyMusicStore.com.ph,

 only from Ivory Music & Video, 

the exclusive licensee of Sony Music in the Philippines.
