Rock the Cause Company Information

How do you define Rock Star? We define it as taking action in your community. TM

Rock the Cause is a Minnesota Based 501(c)3. Our mission is to create a new generation of stewardship for other non-profit causes. We do this by combining the power of music, community and social media in a way that today’s generation will find engaging.

Over the past two years Rock the Cause has put over $250,000 to work supporting causes like Free Arts Minnesota, Minnesota AIDS Project, Open Arms of Minnesota and others.

A recent study showed that 19% of the persons who attended Rock the Cause events gave to charities they discovered through us, and 43% became volunteers.

We also help emerging artists by giving them exposure to music buying audiences through our live concerts and our digital download community.

Our Rock the Cause Campus program partners with Colleges and High Schools across the region to create unique, charitable, concert events for students to help them discover new music and how they can make an impact on their communities.

Our philosophy is three-fold:

1. To bring about awareness for social and environmental issues and causes.
2. To engage young people in volunteerism, advocacy, and philanthropy.
3. To reach new audiences with great music, past and present, through the introduction of up-and-coming performing artists.

Music has greatly influenced many of the social movements of the last century. Because music fans are unequivocally cool, people listen to what they say.

Rock The Cause works with musicians who are not just talented, but also who care about the communities in which they live. They offer their time and talents for a good cause – not just to strike it rich or make it big.

We also work to inspire future philanthropists. We understand that right now, you may not have the cash to donate to a cause you care about, but RTC wants to build up a generation of people who care about one another and donate whatever they can, be it time, goods, services, and yeah, even money.

Some people call it idealistic bleeding heart do-gooders. We call it Rock the Cause. We know our community is growing by the day. We know together we are making an impact!

Hey Hey, My My, Rock & Roll Will Never Die…
