The A-T Children's Project is a nonprofit organization founded in 1993 by Florida parents with two sons who have ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) a rare, fatal genetic disease that affects children. The A-TCP raises funds to support and coordinate first rate biomedical research projects, scientific conferences and a clinical center aimed at finding life-improving therapies and a cure for A-T. For more information specifically on A-T please refer to www.atcp.org.

Most recently, AJR gave fans a free track for the holidays, their version of the classic winter favorite, "Let it Snow."

Up next for the guys is a cover track, in association with THE BEATLES COMPLETE ON UKULELE (TBCOU), of "The Night Before", and their forthcoming spring EP release which will be out in April 2011.
