 Linkin Park gives back to kids affected by Japan tsunamiRight after an earthquake and tsunami hit Japan in the spring, band Linkin Park began to raise money through the non-profit Music for Relief, which went to the work Save the Children was doing in Japan. Now, six months following the devastation, Linkin Park was back in the country to see how those donations have helped kids who have lost so much. In the northeastern town of Ishinomaki, the musicians visited an elementary school where the students had been able to practice emergency drills with red, quilted disaster hoods provided by Save the Children. The hoods, as seen in a travelogue the band filmed, are cushioned to protect the kids' heads, and are also fire-proof. In addition, the children at the elementary school have received backpacks and school supplies. Linkin Park also ventured to a high school in the area where 200 out of the 600 kids at the school had lost their homes. "It's really great to see all their happy, smiling faces, especially considering six months ago, this area was so devastated," Linkin Park's Chester Bennington says in the video. "The surrounding areas were really hit hard....It's been a very moving day. It puts things in perspective. These kids are amazing." Adds Mike Shinoda to those who donated, "you guys have been very generous, and we were happy to be able to be messengers of those tidings of well wishes and support to the people of Japan." Save the Children notes in a statement that there's a five-year recovery plan in place for those who've suffered the devastating effects of the tsunami and earthquake. The organization continues that Linkin Park's visit "has been so important to us in highlighting the longer-term needs of children in recovering from this disaster, and helping our donors see the impact our response has had to date."

tnq Linkin park.....!
You rocks.....!
I do appreciate that they care about their environment, and they are not the artists who care only about their own world surrounding them.
Linkin Park has been here for a while but every time they do something, I'm more and more convinced, yeah, these guys know what they have to do with the fame and power they reached.
Wow. People complaining about Linkin Park not doing anything in the USA clearly knows nothing about this band. You should go read up on them before you make stupid comments and accusations.
Awesome stuff
Yea go check out their interview at CELEBUR.COM

Too bad you give the metal sign to a band that's clearly not a metal band...you sir are the reason music sucks @$$ these days, you fail...
Actually I have to agree with fail... Not to mention your ASCII art is severely flawed.
I used to love Linkin Park! Glad to see they're still around & doing good while they're at it! More music from them, please!!
Lacy and friends– here's an idea– why don't YOU do something to help the tornado victims and lay off criticizing people who are helping those in need!
Thank you Lacy, couldn't agree more. While children all over the world do need help, children here in the US need help too. Who will help them? Some band from Bangladesh?
i love linkin park. They are always trying to help in some way. They raised a ton of money for them. unlike some people, they care about people who have suffered in countries other than their own. And LACY, i'm sure they will do whatever they can to help the tornado victims, also. they had been working on raising that money for months before the tornados occured.
Those are some dorky looking dorks
WHY NOT HELP THE TORNADO VICTIMS IN JOPLIN AND ALABAMA TOO ,IT SEEMS THAT CELEBRITRIES AND MUSICIANS CARE MORE ABOUT OTHER COUNTRIES MORE THAN THE U.S. THEIR OWN COUNTRY,DON'T THEY KNOW WE NEED HELP TOO.
With addition of a archive saver, the pieces of the results should engage in a area that covers the history of the desk.
Ever intelligent convo"s here ? I have not seen one. Hmp !
Linkin Park is the BEST!
To Infinity...AND BEYOND!!!
