LOS ANGELES, CA, August 16, 2010 - Can one person really make a big difference? Joseph Farah, Editor in Chief of WorldNetDaily.com thinks so. That’s how he described award-winning artist/activist Geela Parish in one of his features.

As a life-long peace activist with a vision for a world beyond senseless violence, she first founded her own innovative nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting a culture of peace called One Spirit, One World
and the movement Women Transforming the World (www.womentransformingtheworld.com). Based in Los Angeles, Geela mobilized the local community, business and spiritual leaders by creating The Spirit Club. She teamed up with reputable organizations and celebrities including The Los Angeles Lakers and the second largest school district in the country, the Los Angeles Unified School District to support the Stay in School Day campaign to help inner city kids stay in school and off drugs while helping to plant the seeds of peace and cultural harmony.

Driven by a higher calling, Geela became consumed by the pursuit for world peace while spreading the message of non-violence, healing, unity and preservation of the natural world. “It’s all connected. Destruction knows no respect for anyone or anything. When we destroy each other, we also destroy the environment, which makes as much sense as cutting the branch on which we’re sitting,” says Geela, whose advocacy for peace can be seen in practically all of her many endeavors from her transformative music highlighted by
The Veil of Life, and her critically acclaimed book The American Dream, to many published columns including on Womens Radio (www.womensradio.com) where she serves as a host and a contributor.

These days Geela is focusing her energy on launching her current peace project Operation Healing for the World & Giving with the Stars, featuring the charity CD For the Love of God, which was written and recorded by Geela in order to bring global attention to the urgent need for all people to come together before it’s too late. It’s also intended to inspire hope, giving and social activism.

The peace/inspirational song which was also recorded by other artists including Patti LaBelle, is accompanied by a compelling video posted on YouTube and Geela’s website (www.geela.com) where great information can also be found. “Peace is the one condition for survival in a nuclear age. We either win together by getting beyond superficial barriers of religion, race, and ethnicity or we lose together by leading ourselves to utter self destruction,” says Geela.

What makes this campaign of hope so unique is the fact that it has been created by an American who originally came from a region that has never known peace, the epicenter of senseless violence, the volatile Middle East.

Commemorating 9/11 with Operation Healing for the World & Giving with the Stars
A campaign of hope & peace featuring the charity CD For the Love of God

LOS ANGELES, CA, August 16, 2010 – These days award winning artist/activist Geela Parish is focusing her energy on launching her current peace project Operation Healing for the World & Giving with the Stars in a collaborative effort with Women’s Radio (www.womensradio.com) where she serves as a host and a contributor. The campaign features the charity CD For the Love of God, which was written and recorded by Geela in order to bring global attention to the urgent need for all people to come together before it’s too late. It’s also intended to inspire hope, giving and social activism. The peace/inspirational song, which was also recorded by other artists including Patti Labelle, is accompanied by a compelling video, which contains images from the 9/11 events including the collapse of the Twin Towers and the heroes who helped rescue victims. The video is posted on You Tube and on Geela’s website (www.geela.com). A significant portion of the proceeds from the sale of the song recorded by Geela will be donated to victims of war-torn countries and natural disasters, including the rebuilding of Haiti.

People can support the cause by purchasing the song digitally through online retailers such as iTunes, CDbaby.com and Amazon.com. To donate online visit www.womentransformingtheworld.com

“In observance of the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 events, it’s important to honor the victims and heroes of the 9/11 tragedy by showing the world our commitment to advancing the cause of peace, healing, and unity,” urges Geela, a longtime advocate for the cause of global peace. “In the face of increasing division and social unrest, the need for coming together in the spirit of ‘united we stand and divided we fall’ is urgent. Our ability to co-exist is crucial for our very survival in a nuclear age. We either win together by getting beyond superficial barriers of religion, race, and ethnicity or we lose together by leading ourselves to utter self destruction,” says Geela author of The American Dream and The Veil of Life CD.

What makes this story so unique is the fact that this campaign has been created by an American who originally came from a region that has never known peace, the epicenter of senseless violence, the volatile Middle East. With a growing tremendous response to the video worldwide and a committed support team, the project is expected to be a huge success, all for the love of God.
