Anand Bhatt & Friends Release Music Dedicated to Benefit the Simply Smiles Organization

Coffee Lovers Can Enjoy Music by Anand Bhatt and Friends and Help Brighten Futures for Impoverished Children.

Anand Bhatt releases a new collection of digital songs specifically
for Simply Smiles to help raise awareness and funds for this not-for-profit organization’s dedication to create smiles on the faces of impoverished children.

Bhatt, an international rockstar and the first Indian American to be inducted into the Latin Grammy’s,
made the switch and is a proud drinker of Simply Smiles coffee. One bag of Simply Smiles Coffee
can feed a child for three weeks.  Anand Bhatt rounded up some musician friends and they wrote, recorded, and compiled songs specifically to help Simply Smiles and for the entertainment benefit of their supporters.

“Simply Smiles, Inc. has made delivering donations to impoverished children easy for coffee lovers andphilanthropists alike,” said Bhatt. “Their organization has an endless array of projects aimed at helpingkids live as kids. I am grateful to be part of Simply Smiles and help this organization with their mission to help children.”

The globalization of the coffee market has all but destroyed coffee farming as a sustainable way of life for families living in the mountains of southern Oaxaca, Mexico. Through a purchase of Simply Smiles Coffee, a Mexican blend, buyers are helping to both feed the impoverished people of this region and to make coffee farming a viable way of life again.
