DeLaire has partnered with Rock The Cause, a non-profit organization, and the proceeds from the song and the associated GoFundMe campaign will go back to the community to help music programs and entertainment venues that are struggling during this time. 

    Check out "Love Can Heal The World" and let it inspire you to make a difference in your community and family.
