RightsFlow donates 5% of net proceeds to World Hunger Year (WHY), a leading advocate for innovative, community-based solutions to hunger and poverty.
More than 35.5 million people in the U.S., including 12.6 million children, live in households that struggle to feed their families. But there is something simple and effective artists can do to help.
You can join Bruce Springsteen, Michael McDonald, Jackson Browne, Lupe Fiasco, Darryl "DMC" McDaniels, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Aerosmith, and many other activist-performers and indie artists in Artists Against Hunger & Poverty. This artist-directed division of WHY (World Hunger Year) works with artists and the music industry to raise awareness and funds for the fight against hunger and poverty both in the U.S. and around the world.
Become an Artist Advocate, and you'll be connected with hundreds of amazing grassroots organizations with a customized campaign to support local hunger charities. You can also perform a benefit concert, donate a song, tickets, and VIP experiences that will support WHY and the local anti-hunger charities in your tour cities. Donating autographed memorabilia and speaking out on behalf of the fight against hunger and poverty from the stage and with the media is a powerful way to be involved too. As an Artist Advocate, there are many ways you can help. And Artists Against Hunger & Poverty would like to help get you started. Just call or email today.

About WHY: | Download a brief background on WHY >
Every day WHY helps thousands of America's hungry connect to food pantries, soup kitchens, shelter, and government programs in their neighborhoods by providing immediate help via the National Hunger Hotline 1-866-3-HUNGRY. WHY also supports the work of more than 8,750 community-based organizations working on the frontlines to help poor and hungry Americans move out of poverty, more specifically helping them tap their own power to be self-reliant through job training, life skills, urban farming, after school programs, affordable housing, entrepreneurial businesses, and much more. WHY is a leading advocate for innovative, community-based solutions to hunger and poverty, and challenges society to confront these problems by advancing models that create self-reliance, economic justice, and equal access to nutritious and affordable food. WHY was co-founded in 1975 by artist-activist Harry Chapin and current executive director Bill Ayres.
