Egyptian singer Tamer Husni has joined a campaign to help 80 children that are hearing impaired. The campaign was recently launched by the Egyptian satellite television channel and called on people to donate any amount they can in order to help aid the children in having surgery done to improve their hearing.
Tamer had announced on his official page on the internet social network Facebook that he has joined the campaign and called on all his fans to join and asked if they could donate as little as one Egyptian pound noting that every pound makes a great difference.
According to the internet website MBC.net, the singer’s action was supported by his fans, who considered it a very humane act. Some people felt it was the singer’s way of trying to win back popularity he lost during the Egyptian Revolution due to his political views.
