Grobanites for Africa

About Me


www.grobanitesforafrica.org
Grobanites for Africa is a grassroots charity effort whereby dedicated fans of Josh Groban attempt to affect positive change in the lives of African children who suffer from poverty, HIV/AIDS, hunger, homelessness, or lack of educational opportunities.

Originally begun as "Grobanites for 46664," GFA is an official affiliate of Grobanites for Charity, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. We work to increase awareness of the crises in Africa and encourage support of the Josh Groban Foundation through donations.

Our activities include ongoing fundraisers through this site and the Josh Groban message boards, online auctions, and item sales at pre-concert meet-and-greets prior to Josh's shows while on tour.
