Dream Child 3 concert launched
It is not often that sultry Afro-Pop singer, Becca comes out herself to make strong pitches for her shows but she was in a feisty mood as she boldly said she would take off her shoes and party with everyone at the upcoming Dream Child 3 charity concert.

Becca is one of the headline acts for the concert being organized by Scratch Studios on behalf of the Dream Child Foundation on March 22 to raise funds to support needy children.
Apart from Becca, other artistes expected to be on the bill are Osibisa, Elivava, Ralph Karikari and some other top performers from Nigeria.
The Dream Child Foundation seeks to empower underprivileged African children to play important roles in the continent’s socio-economic development.
It does that by raising funds through a major concert each year and donates the money to a specific organisation working in children’s interests.
Proceeds from the first concert in 2012 went to the children’s unit of the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital. Money was raised for the Child Development Centre at Apam last year.
This year’s philanthropic initiative will benefit Orphan Aid Africa which works to put orphans in foster cater instead of institutions.
“Anything about children interests me and that is why we must all patronize the March 22 concert and help to put smiles on the faces of children,” Becca said at the concert launch which was chaired by H. E. Ademola Oluseyi Onafowokan, the Nigerian High Commissioner to Ghana.
He announced that the next Dream Child charity will come off in Lagos next year. Scratch Studios officials also indicated that the concert in 2016 was likely to come off in Johannesburg, South Africa.
