"Making a difference, one show at a time"

About Me

About Rock for Hunger
Mission:"To end the Cycle of local and global poverty."
Vision: The community standing together as one to help make the world a better place both locally and globally, with music and in peace.
Rock for Hunger was started by a group of students at the University of Central Florida. With the passion of making a difference in the community, and changing people's life, these students choose music as their driving force of getting the community involved to end poverty. Their community is the city where they reside, and the world in which they live. Starting city by city, state by state, country to country, and continent to continent, this group hopes to inspire people of all cultures to join them with music and in peace, and end the growing problem of poverty. Only by everyone working together we can make the world a better place. Through a series of benefit concerts, we hope to raise awareness about local and global Hunger & Homelessness, and end poverty. Music gets people together, music can send a powerful message, and music can spread peace.
Official Site: Rock for Hunger
Goals: Spread the message of Rock for Hunger to our local community’s one city at a time.

Continue spreading our message, and getting people involved in bettering our communities with Music and Peace!
The only way we can make a difference in the world is by working together.
