Each time we gather together as a Rave community we give back to one another without thinking, without hesitation.
We offer whatever we have to our neighbors, our new friends, even to strangers walking by. We do this because it is done for us. It’s a never ending cycle of kindness.
Electronic Dance Music has taught us to embrace this compassion and now it’s time to show the rest of the world what PLUR really means.
This Holiday season, help support the charities that mean the most to you.
We all experience tragedy and hardship in our lives. That’s what keeps us thankful for the things that we have. What better way to give thanks than to aid someone else in their time of need? During this holiday season, gift a fellow man with a warm meal or an education. Put your extra dollars towards raising awareness for domestic or sexual violence.
Find a charity that speaks to you, that represents the changes you would like to see in this world and give what you can.
