Beluga Grads

Every week we receive heartfelt emails from Beluga Grads, like this one:

Hello Raffi and Friends!

I can't believe I wandered over your site just recently. I am a Beluga Grad born in 1987 who was raised on Raffi tapes. I have been philosophizing for years about Child Honouring but I had no name for it. I think this is the most beautiful concept that can heal and change our world. It is so simple and so positive for the mind, body and spirit. Children are the greatest gift and when surrounded by such positive influences such as eco-friendly music, a.k.a Raffi!, there is no bad that can come from it. These kids will act with love towards others and gaya first and foremost. We all know we could use a little more of that eh!

On another note, are there any opportunities for students to help out your organization? I am a Junior at the University of Michigan and I would love to do anything for you.

Sincerely,
Maral Banan

We are delighted to know that Raffi’s music and vision continues to inspire those who grew up singing with him.
