Shaggy Dare You 2010

<p>I dare you to witness the doctor saying, 'If only they had the equipment needed to save your child'...--Shaggy</p><p>Shaggy and&nbsp;employees of Bustamante Hospital for Children, as well as King of the Dancehall Beenie Man, were out in their numbers yesterday at the hospital's conference room for the launch of 'Shaggy and Friends I Dare You 2010'. A smiling Shaggy, real name Orville Burrell, made an early appearance to greet his now extended family for the concert that last year raised $27 million, which was used to buy much-needed <a id="KonaLink2" class="kLink" style="POSITION: static; TEXT-DECORATION: underline! important" onclick="adlinkMouseClick(event,this,2);" onmouseover="adlinkMouseOver(event,this,2);" onmouseout="adlinkMouseOut(event,this,2);" href="http://www.jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/20091029/ent/ent1.html#" target="_new"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; color: #ffa500; position: static;"><span class="kLink" style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; FONT-SIZE: 13px; COLOR: orange! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial; POSITION: relative">equipment</span></span></a> for the Bustamante hospital. <strong>This year, they are aiming to raise $50 million.</strong>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>All proceeds of this event will be in aid of the Bustamante Hospital for Children</strong></p><p>Confirmed to perform are Papa San, Tanya Stephens, Michael Rose, Queen Ifrica, Sanchez, Ce'Cile, Toots Hibbert, Ding Dong, Baby Cham, Machel Montano, Half Pint, Busy Signal, Beenie Man, American singer Joe and former lead singer of UB40 Ali Campbell.</p><p>Shaggy decided to make a difference - As an artiste, ever since achieving success with such hits as, "It Wasn't Me" and "Angel", I vowed to always try wherever possible, to contribute to the less fortunate of Jamaica. A personal experience opened my eyes to the obstacles children faced with receiving proper medical care in Jamaica, and I have since adopted the Bustamante Hospital for Children making donations of medical equipment where I could, which the hospital lacked for several years. All in hopes of helping Bustamante operate more efficiently and save precious lives. Additionally, I have staged annual Christmas treats for the children where I visit all the wards, bearing gifts with Santa in tow. Ending with a show in the park with performances by other artistes who I've invited to entertain the children (those who can leave their beds) and the doctors, nurses and other staff.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
