About

RockCorps is a pro-social marketing and entertainment company using music and culture to inspire action

Brands partner with RockCorps to create impactful partnerships that deliver a triple benefit: for individuals, society, and brands.

​

By collaborating with RockCorps, brands access world-class marketing and communications that aligns with a strong social purpose. Leveraging the power of music and culture, we inspire youth to engage in civic life through our core philosophy of Give, Get Given.

​

Powered by brand partnerships - participants can give four hours of their time and, in return, receive a ticket to the hottest concert of the year.

To date, we’ve produced money can't buy concerts across the USA, Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, the UK, France, Israel, Australia, South Africa, Japan, and the Caribbean.

​

RockCorps has worked with some of the world’s biggest artists, including Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Maroon 5, Snoop Dogg, Kanye West, David Guetta, Nas and many more.

Where it all began...

We strongly believe in the power of music to unite and in civic engagement as a driver of long-term, sustainable change. Now, more than ever, we see a deep need for connection. In the wake of the pandemic, with increasing inequities in access to concerts and growing divisions in society, the role of RockCorps has never been more crucial.

 

It all began as a simple idea over a pasta dinner in Los Angeles. Seven friends, inspired by the aftermath of 9/11, felt a growing urgency for people to come together, rebuild neighborhoods, get to know each other, and have fun in the process.

 

We wanted to work with brands to harness the power of music and celebrity, making volunteering an integral part of youth culture—just like sports, music, fashion, and gaming. Our mission has always been about inclusivity: not everyone has cash, but everyone can give their time. That’s how the concept of Give, Get Given was born.

 

Today, as RockCorps continues to engage youth in cities worldwide, we are reminded of the universal desire to give back, connect, and enjoy life while doing it. This is what drives us every day—the belief that we can create communities where giving is cool and fun, whether it’s through volunteering or coming together to experience an unforgettable concert.
