MONKEY MAJIK member Blaise Plant recently updated his official blog with pictures of himself doing volunteer work, which touched his fans during this time of national crisis.

Ever since the earthquake hit, Blaise has dedicated himself to tweeting news and uplifting messages; he's even helped his followers to locate family members. Blaise also joined the volunteer efforts in Sendai and other impacted areas, assisting with clean-up and other necessary tasks.

He wrote,�"It has been an emotional week. I've seen people cry, towns destroyed, ships washed up on shore, and I hope I never get to see that again. But out of all this turmoil comes people working together trying to rebuild."

"It's a slow process, but I'm sure things will turn out well. I pray for all the families who have lost loved ones, and are still looking for their loved ones."

Blaise also celebrated his 31st birthday on March 18th. "I completely forgot it's my Birthday...Thanks everyone! Love ya," the singer posted through his official Twitter. His brother and fellow bandmate, Maynard Plant, made sure to purchase a cake, which added some cheer to an otherwise rough week.

Fans commented, "Happy birthday!", "I want to be a kind and strong person like you, Blaise" and "I'm so moved by you and Maynard's actions".
