Mission Statement

rock CAN roll, a volunteer, non profit (501c-3), hunger relief organization. Our message is simple: You CAN Help Out While You Rock Out! We collaborate with rock concerts & events to collect healthy food (and basic necessities) for people & PETs to stock the shelves of emergency food agencies local to each event.

Description

Hunger and Poverty are issues most people prefer to ignore. Rock CAN Roll is changing that! We table at rock concerts & events, collecting food and donations to stock local emergency food agencies. We are raising awareness as advocates and a voice for folks who thought they’d been forgotten. One CAN doesn't make a big difference by itself, however, if 50 or 100 or 1000 each bring one item - we have a substantial amount of food that CAN fill in the shelves of a local food pantry or shelter!

Unfortunately, the need is increasing (at times, people are turned away!) while resources are steadily declining. We believe people are innately good and want to help...but are caught up in their own chaotic lives, overwhelmed, and just don't know where or how to do something. Unfortunately, school is winding down and free lunches are over for kids in need. Sadly, hunger does not take a vacation. rock CAN roll creates fast, quick and easy opportunities for people to do something very important - provide food to people who need it.

At RCR ,we bring people together: People who have and People who need with People who CAN! Join us! We welcome your support!
