Rock the Cause

Below are the top reasons why your support will make an impact for generations to come!   

Over the past 14 years Rock the Cause has built a name for itself as one of the nation's most innovative and in-demand nonprofits! 

If you love building the spirit of volunteerism and discovering music we are 2 for one.

Here is how your donations will go to work!  

  Volunteer Drives  

Over the past 10 years Rock the Cause has enrolled thousands of new members for dozens of nonprofit organizations. Many of the nonprofits report a 30% conversion rate on the volunteers we connect them with. People who discover causes through Rock the Cause get involved in their communities.  You will find us at festivals, concert events, and campuses across the region helping young people of all ages discover a cause to give their time to.   

Rock the Cause Campus

 Through our partnerships with Junior Achievement of the Upper Midwest, Achieve Minneapolis and Upward Bound, High School for Recording Arts, and educators across the region Rock the Cause has mentored over 2000 students on how they can make an impact in their communities.  

We conduct in the classroom training on how to create a volunteer drive, concert event, or awareness for causes that are important to students. We help young people to become aware of how volunteerism can lead to college, a great job, and stronger communities. 

In 2017 Rock the Cause received an NAACP Image Award Nomination Certificate for our collaboration with High School for Recording Arts on the song and video 'Royalty'.  

Social Media and Community Engagement

 Almost daily Rock the Cause is contacted by non-profits seeking help with getting their message out into the community. They recognize that Rock the Cause has the attention of a vibrant and engaged community of volunteer-minded people.  

Our Social Media team works with nonprofits to get their message out there. We list their events and volunteer needs on our website. We broadcast the needs of the nonprofit seeking help across our ever-expanding social network. With the help of our media partners, we can reach thousands of people in a matter of moments.  

Our Social Media team is comprised of student interns from across the region seeking a fun way to learn about marketing, and communication while making a difference. Giving them the job skills they need to bring value to the community and the workplace.    

Music Can Change the World  

 Nothing brings people together like the power of music. Over the past  10 years Rock the Cause produced over 5 dozen concert events, of varying size, that supported the nonprofits and artists we work with.

We have created a platform for emerging artists to get their music heard while making a difference.

Rock the Cause Records

Our record label has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for numerous charitable organizations, through over 30 music releases.

We are the people who helped Zach Sobiech release his #1 selling single 'Clouds'. Zach lost his battle to cancer in May of 2013. Sales of his music through Rock the Cause Records generated over $260,000 which was directed to the Zach Sobiech Osteosarcoma Research Fund per Zach's wishes,

Rock the Cause Records has sold over 500,000 charitable singles, 60,000 charitable records, and compilations albums, and our music releases have been streamed worldwide over 30 million times!   

Whether it is a concert event, music download, or record release Rock the Cause creates a high impact through music!
