I'd like to meet:VILLAGE BANKING CAMPAIGN view my pics ::view my videos Ambassador of Hope Natalie Portman and iTunes Team Up for FINCA Apple iTunes invited Natalie Portman to produce its first-ever charity album with the specific goal of raising funds to support FINCA's Village Banking Campaign. The 16-song benefit compilation, Big Change: Songs for FINCA , is available for download exclusively on iTunes for $7.99, with net proceeds benefiting FINCA. The album includes exclusive tracks from The Shins, Rogue Wave, Beirut , and Devendra Banhart as well as music from other artists and groups from the independent music community, as well as photos from Natalie's recent field visit with FINCA clients in Africa . "I'm so excited that two of my passions, great new music and microfinance, can collide in such an inspiring and world-bettering fashion," said Portman. "I hope you enjoy my favorite bands while supporting a truly meaningful cause." You can make music a vehicle for change in the world by going to iTunes and buying the album today . And, why not encourage your friends to do the same? Your one, simple action will make a difference in the lives of people living on less than $2 a day by providing them with much-needed loan capital to start a small business, which will dramatically improve their lives and, more importantly, the lives of their children.
