PFC Day isn’t limited to musical performances and concerts at special venues… Check out some of the awesome ways people have celebrated the day and raised money for the cause!
BUSK AROUND TOWN
After all, the Playing For Change movement started with the music of the streets.
YOGA FOR CHANGE
Ask a local yoga studio donate proceeds from a class to PFCF schools.
START A FUNDRAISING PAGE
Maybe you don’t want to put on a show, but just want to get the word out about our cause. Use your PFCDay.org page to explain why people should care, and start driving donations. (Don’t forget to set a goal, which always incentivizes giving!). Get started by clicking “Create Your Event” at pfcday.org/participate.
MAKE YOUR OWN PARTY
A backyard barbecue, a jam session with friends, a listening party for your favorite albums, you name it… You don’t need a fancy venue to get your community together and share in the joy of PFC Day!
SPREAD THE WORD
No matter how you’re getting involved, you can make a big impact by educating people about PFCF’s work. Take a look at our Toolkit for videos, brochures, and all kinds of background materials explaining why it’s important to give kids the gift of music. Share your involvement on social media, like the Facebook status update below:
