🥁💙 Our new fundraiser, Stubbornly Optimistic supports the Disabled American Veterans Charitable Service Trust, a mission close to Marcus Bleecker’s heart. 

Marcus grew up watching his father, a WWII veteran, live a life of service long after he left the uniform. 
That legacy fuels this project, created to help veterans whose programs are disappearing and whose needs keep growing. Marcus brings powerful heart and talent to this cause. He’s the drummer for The John Popper Project (with John Popper and DJ Logic) and a 2x Emmy-nominated filmmaker whose work spans directing, cinematography, writing, and festival-recognized storytelling. 

This Play it Forward fundraiser is his way of giving back. Tap the link in our bio to donate, download the track, and help us keep the rhythm of optimism alive.

Happy Juneteenth!

We are spotlighting three fundraisers today that support the NCAAP, the YBLA, and Color of Change. The NCAAP is a civil rights organization that has been fighting racial discrimination for over a hundred years. The YBLA supports young Black professionals by fostering leadership and involvement in their community with the goal of creating positive impacts. Color of Change is an online organization that focuses on holding government officials accountable for making our country a safer place for Black people.

Visit each organizations individual website for more information.

Today marks 160 years since the 13th amendment was ratified and slavery was abolished. We hope everyone is able to continue to use this day to celebrate and educate themselves on the history of Juneteenth.

Tonight (I’m Dreaming) is a beautiful song written by Bill Tuck about overcoming the self doubt and hopelessness that one may feel when aiming for their dreams.

Fittingly, this fundraiser supports the UC Regents at the UC Davis campus, specifically supporting high school apprentices and undergraduate researchers in STEM fields. These programs, respectively, aim to give high schoolers access to research labs, techniques, and diversify the math and physical science graduate field.
