Singer-songwriter Kelly Lang, TG Sheppard, Barry Gibb of The Bee Gees, Amy Grant, Danny Gokey, Kip Winger of rock group Winger, Seleca Westbrook, Buddy Hyatt of Toto and others performed recently during a charity concert benefitting Agape International Missions (AIM), which rescues children from sex trafficking. The event took place April 3 at EAU Palm Beach Resort in Manalapan, Fla., and raised $100,000 to help AIM build a new school in Svay Pak, Cambodia, which will provide protection and education for more than 1,500 children.
“One of the highlights of the evening was a special duet, “Islands In The Stream”, performed by Barry Gibb and Kelly Lang which just about brought the house down” said Eva Hill of the EAU resort.
