Story

BE PART OF A GLOBAL MUSIC MOVEMENT FOR POSITIVE CHANGE

In Place of War presents: Around the World In 80 Raves | Worldwide sponsored fundraising challenge meets global rave...

We're engaging members of the public and our worldwide music industry partners in a collaborative fundraising challenge - soundtracked by streamed raves from DJs all over the world, celebrating the efforts of all our sponsored fundraisers. Money raised collectively will help fund music studio developments in Sao Paulo Brazil, and Lavender Hill, South Africa .

Your efforts & donations will support these communities, engaging young people away from gangs, offering them a safe space to build positive futures and bring hope and opportunity to those who live with the constant threat of crime, unemployment and conflict. Through collaboration and partnership, we hope to create more than a fundraising challenge or campaign. This will be a movement of music industry and music lovers becoming activists, harnessing the uniquely universal power of music to bring us all together and make a positive change with massive impact, and were encouraging industry teams, friends and family to get involved.

*International donations can also be made via our website: inplaceofwar.net/donate

You can dance, walk, run, cycle or swim your distance goal and seek sponsorship for your efforts with the chance for individuals and teams to win amazing prizes donated by some of In Place of War's partners, DJS and entertainment industry networks.
