Dance Music Hall of Fame (www.dmhof.com) - Founded in 2003, by recording industry executives Brian Chin, Daniel Glass, Eddie O'Loughlin, John Parker and Tom Silverman, the Dance Music Hall of Fame is a not-for-profit organization that recognizes the contributions of those who have had a significant impact on the evolution and development of dance music and will celebrate the history and significance of dance music through awards and educational programs.LIFEbeat (www.lifebeat.org) the Music Industry Fights AIDS is a national non-profit organization dedicated to reaching America's youth with the message of HIV/AIDS prevention. LIFEbeat mobilizes the talents and resources of the music industry to raise awareness and to provide support to the AIDS community. In 1992, the music industry had not yet addressed the AIDS crisis with a unified voice, although many of its members had succumbed to the disease. Bob Caviano, a respected music manager, wrote an editorial in Billboard disclosing his illness and challenged the industry to take action. A number of high-level executives heeded his call and formed LIFEbeat. Over the years, LIFEbeat has emerged as a leading advocate for prevention efforts directed at youth. Recognizing that music has always played a significant role in the lives of young people, LIFEbeat has carved out a unique niche by effectively using the power of music to reach this population. LIFEbeat strives to cultivate a strong sense of self-worth and self- respect in youth to help them resist negative influences that may lead to engagement in risky behaviors.
