"A Decade of Difference"" will recognize both Clinton's birthday and the achievements of the William J. Clinton Foundation.
"I am deeply grateful that the artists associated with the concert are giving their time and talent to raise awareness about the work of my foundation," said President Bill Clinton. "In the past decade, commitments to my Clinton Global Initiative have improved the lives of more than 300 million people around the world. We've lowered the cost of AIDS and HIV treatment, combated climate change, strengthened economies, increased access to education and healthcare, and provided financing and mentoring for small businesses. This celebration marks ten years of these efforts and demonstrates how much we can do to make a difference in the years ahead."
