Hogwarts Radio: Helping Haiti Heal

Colin — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 21:29:28 +0000

On January 23rd, 2010, Hogwarts Radio took part in “Helping Haiti Heal”, a Harry Potter Fandom event which raised money to help heal the devastation in Haiti. If you couldn’t be there to experience it, or just want to re-live it, listen in on the 30 minute segment that Hogwarts Radio hosted.

UPDATE: The entire event should be available in audio format soon; at which time we will replace the current file with four updated files (seeing as how the show was 6 hours long). If you want to listen to other segments, visit the Harry Potter Alliance’s Helping Haiti Heal website.
