Musikhjälpen comes to Malmö
SR (Swedish Radio), SVT (Swedish Television) and Radiohjälpen are teaming up for Musikhjälpen, an international benefit program aimed to help refugees. In this particular Swedish case, three DJs will be locked inside a glass home in central Malmö for three days where they will only be allowed to consume liquids and will be expected to broadcast 24-hours a day for 6 days, from December 13-19. As for the money raising part, listeners will be able to request songs for 50 SEK and in addition, you can also hire the staff of SR to do pretty much whatever you want. Got a big pile of dishes building up in the sink? Get a DJ to take care of it and help out some refugees at the same time. It's win-win! Read more: https://www.sr.se/musikhjalpen
