Punks Fighting Poverty

Punks Fighting Poverty We throw Benefit, DIY shows with Underground bands of all genres
to raise funds, cloths/blanket donations to be distributed to those who really need it.

Punks Fighting Poverty (Founded by Nat Hall) started in the early 2000's at Radiation Records with a small group of people that would use benefit shows and a donation jar (with a Flux of Pink Indians image) to generate funds to put together sack lunches along with other cloths, blankets and shoes donations to be passed out on Skid Row and other heavily impoverished areas. This still goes on to thi

s day, but not often enough. We are looking for new bands to carry the torch and new ideas on how to generate the most donations and innovative ways to spread these vital essentials to those who need it most. Were not just looking for how many LIKES we can get but how many people we can reach and how many people give us feed back. We are constantly looking for DIY venues, Underground bands, and volunteers to spend their precious time to TRY and make a difference. Please get in touch and help us make this huge!

We need to start doing benefit shows again? Who's in?
I have a lot of ideas right now.
I'm looking forward to hearing yours.
Obviously, bands needed.
But we need innovative ideas on how to expand and make an impact peoples lives.
We need to hit the streets and actually talk to the people with no homes. Figure out what they need. Maybe we can do a show to pay for somebody's birth certificate and Social Security card and ID so they can get a job. Put in the work to try and get somebody on their feet. One by one instead of handing out sack lunches and close a few times a year. Maybe that dude you see sleeping on the bus stop every day needs a tooth pulled. Pay for a doctor visit or something to get somebody out of pain, so that they can get themselves in the right state of mind to help themselves. You'd be surprised how much different someone can feel in a clean pair of clothes and a non-throbbing tooth. Maybe somebody has asthma and can't afford it has my inhaler. Boost a mo********er up. Let them know that life is not hopeless. And let's try and get people off the streets!!!
