On Friday, June 7th 2013, HOPE, an international humanitarian concert, will take place
at the Velodrom concert hall in Berlin. International and Iranian stars will lend their
voices to let the people of Iran know they are not alone in their struggle for human
rights and freedom.



The concert will be hosted by the famous American-Iranian journalist and human rights
advocate Roxana Saberi, who was arrested in Iran on trumped-up charges in 2009 and freed
after an international outcry for her release.



This event is a one-of-a-kind concert, as famous artists from the USA, U.K., Spain,
Sweden, Greece, Italy, France, Russia and Iran are participating in the concert. These
artists are not only representing their own countries, but they are joining together as
one to send a clear and loud message to the people of Iran that the entire world is united
for them and hears their silenced voices.



All proceeds from the tickets will be donated to the NGO Children of Persia
(http://www.childrenofpersia.org) to finance medical treatment for children in Iran, and
to the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran (http://www.iranhumanrights.org).



"Hope is the strongest driving force" - Oscar Arias Sanchez, winner of the Nobel Peace
Prize. Under this slogan, the Artists will express their support for the Iranian people
and amplify their voices on the international stage. The stars and the concert do not
represent any political views or agenda and are united in their call for universal human
rights, a peaceful way of living, and democracy.



This historic HOPE concert is supported by prominent business leaders, artists,
authors, doctors and humanitarian organizations from all over the world, people of all
faiths and religions who leave their differences aside in order to send a message of hope
and solidarity to the Iranian people.



Hosting this significant event in Berlin is a testimony that hope and courage can
bring change.



The finale song, "MY LOVE":



The legendary artist Stevie Wonder, who has had more than 30 worldwide hits and
received 22 Grammy Awards, is lending his support and contributing his song "My Love" to
our concert with his blessing to the people of Iran. All the artists will raise their
voices at the end of the evening to perform his very special song that sends a message of
unity, harmony and peace.



The renowned music producer, 16-time Grammy Award winner Humberto Gatica, has agreed
to lend his talent and passion to our historic concert and will be producing Stevie's song
as the finale of the show. Humberto has produced and worked with some of the best-selling
artists in the world - including Celine Dion, Josh Groban, Michael Buble, Andrea Bocelli,
