"Who Hears The Cries" CD had it's official debut at the Motown Cafe at Universal Studios Citywalk in Orlando, Florida!

Not only was this the first place to openly play the CD, but they now regularly play Craig's CD in their lineup along with such classic hits and award winning songs by The Commodores, Michael Jackson, The Temptations, Diana Ross and The Supremes, and many more.
Here is a summary of what's happening for the "Who Hears The Cries" CD, April - May 2002

* We are very honored to announce that the Veteran's Mobile Museum is now playing the "Who Hears The Cries" CD alongside the Moving Vietnam Memorial Wall and travels to Veteran's ceremonies, schools, parades, and other events. http://www.themovingwall.org.

"The Veteran's Mobile Museum is more than just an exhibit, it is a rolling memorial to those who have given so much, many who never returned home. The museum is a place to preserve these sacrifices and memories. It demonstrates to the visitor that freedom has not been free, it was paid for by those who served."

*  We are very proud that on May 11th, due to the continuing success and positive messages of the CD, we have been invited by the Brevard County Florida Sheriff's Dept. to be part of the National Police Memorial week at the Melbourne, FL Regional Mall. There will be several departments of law enforcement paying tribute to those who have lost their lives protecting our freedoms. Supported by WMEL radio, we will be broadcasting live. It has been one of our dreams while working in the recording studio, that we would be able to use the notoriety to help organizations for missing children. We are happy to report that a prominent organization, Voice for the Children, from West Palm Beach, FL will be present along with several parents who will be able to get more attention for their plight to find their missing children. Imagine what it's like not knowing where your child is tonight.

Thank you for your support for the "Who Hears The Cries" CD. It is now getting radio airplay and enabling us to get radio and media coverage to not only talk about the incredible production by super-stars, but as hoped for from the inception, these professionally produced pop songs are providing a method to raise awareness for the issues of divorce, custody, and abduction facing millions of children and parents.

We would like to invite those who have heard the CD to write a review. It may be posted on The Fans Write section on our website.

As shown on the front-cover page of the USA Today paper, April 9, 2002, approximately 22 million of the 72 million children in the USA live in broken homes. 16 million live with their mother with no father, 3 million with the father and no mother, and 2.9 million with neither parent. That's almost 1/3 of all children in the USA live in broken homes! Considering that each child has (or had) a mother and a father that's approximately 66 million people directly in broken homes. Of the 50 million children that live with two parents - many of those are actually with a step-parent. Who hears the cries of all these children and families? And this is only in the USA.

Palm Bay Elementary Invites Craig Deanto To Career Day 2002

For their annual Career Day on May 8, 2002, the Palm Bay Elementary School invited Craig Deanto to speak about his experience in the music industry.

Speaking throughout the day to several music classes, Mr. Deanto was surrounded by wonderful children, politely asking him questions and for autographs. Some of the students even mentioned that they had already heard him on the radio.

The students heard songs from the new CD, "Who Hears The Cries", as well as a radio promotion for it. They had questions about how things work in a recording studio and during the actual recording session, what goes into writing songs, as well as the process of manufacturing the CD and marketing it. Craig reinforced the need for the students to continue their education, including college as he and several musicians he works with have, so that they will always have a solid career while working towards their dream.

The final class of the day had a lot of fun rocking to the pop tune, "To The Roll of the Dice".

By the end of the day, the school was buzzing about their special "pop star" guest and the school plans on playing the CD over their loudspeaker system. 

Mr. Deanto very much enjoyed the day at the school and thanks the staff and all the children of Palm Bay Elementary for inviting him!
After years of speaking against the unfair practices within custody courts, Craig Deanto and others gain the ear of the Washington Times!

News Surrounding Craig's CD and Ongoing Social Work
Craig interviewed LIVE on Universal Radio 7, June 2007

Show hosts Steve and Monica Donofrio asked Craig to share his experience of divorce; how he became a spokesperson for the children with no voice in the custody battles which determine their fate. Listened to online by numerous fans, "Wooers" and friends, it was a wonderful, heartfelt story which no doubt touched all the parents who have experienced a challenging divorce or are facing the JUDICIAL SYSTEM'S CHOICE in an upcoming custody battle.

While Universal 7 is changing their site, past show's audio files appear to no longer be available. However, Suzanne Fromtling with WooWebDesigns is working towards providing a smaller, downloadable audio file. Check back, or just watch in Suzanne's newsletter, "The MailTruck" for a release date along with any future interviews by Steve and Monica!
