About Green With Music
Green With Music was created by Beverly Visty-Doman and John Forrester to leverage long-standing relationships in both the green world and the music world to further public awareness of “going green!” GWM events create evocative atmospheres and merge celebrity culture with meritorious green brands, holistic lifestyle practices and eco charities. Green with Music inspires Artists to make a stand, make a change and give back to the environment.

In addition to sustainable consulting, marketing and publicity, Green With Music specializes in producing Eco-luxurious gifting retreats, rejuvenation lounges, and spa experiences. Also, we produce conferences on greening the touring and live performance venue industries. As sustainability experts, we build bridges between non-profits, trend setters, innovative brands and the real world– all to generate awareness and affect positive changes for our world.

Wherever the Need is a facilitator for individuals in developing countries to take control of their lives and work their way out of poverty. They do this through several key steps: providing water (and its conservation); constructing eco-sanitation units (for families, schools and communities) and giving training in their usage; implementing livelihood programmes and through empowerment programmes that make people understand only they can walk the path out of poverty and take control of their own destiny. Whenever possible, it works on projects that are naturally sustainable, and implements them through processes that are environmentally sensitive.
