Growing A Local BF Branch
Do you want initiate change & bring modern music education to underserved youth in your community?
Establish A BF Branch Near You
Rally the local industry and find a champion to fund the startup costs of a local BF Branch.
Activate The Local Community
Visit 2 schools per month (or 24 locations) all year to provide free music making programs.
Expand your Local Branch
For every $500 raised, we can activate another location and build a team of local mentors.
STEP ONE:
Find Local Champions
The first step to starting a local Boredomfighters Branch is to find Industry Champions to pledge a donation to your local Industry Fund. This fund covers all of your local operating expenses, giving us the resources to start activating the surrounding community.
Industry Fund Champions are composed of Venues, Festivals, Touring Artists, Local Brands & Private Donors.
STEP TWO:
Raise $12.5k For Your Industry Fund
In order to grow your branch, you need funding to help put studio gear in the classrooms & properly train local educators. This is where your Industry Champions come into play. Once $12.5k is raised for the branch, we can activate immediately.
This initial $12.5K doesn't only cover back-of-house expenses, but also sets your team up with funding for 2 workshops per month for a year. This ensures that your chapter can start strong and activate locally immediately.
STEP THREE:
Activate Your Community Fund & Mentors
Now you are ready to activate your Community Fund. This is made up of stable ongoing monthly donations that come from fans, friends, & supporters in your community. Since business expenses are covered by the Industry Fund, your Community Fund is able to go directly to stable ongoing mentorships for youth.
For every member donating $8/month in the Community Fund, we can provide (4) 30 minute 1on1 mentorship sessions to a child in the community wanting to level up their sound.
STEP FOUR:
Grow Your Branch & Community.
By now, you are smooth sailing. Both funds are up and running and your actively hosting workshops in your community. Soon you will have more schools calling asking for support. To ensure readiness, it's time to find more Industry Champions to stabilize your team.
Boredomfighters Branch Locations
We are currently activating youth through 6 different Boredomfighters Branches across the country.
The Industry Fund
Music venues, touring musicians, local businesses and private donors are rallied to become our Industry Champions, supporting the cause by donating $1 per ticket sale to help fund a Boredomfighters chapter in your area. This is the first step to bringing workshops to your community.
This generous donation covers operational costs for equipment and ongoing free workshops in local schools and community centers who serve youth that are historically disadvantaged.
Local Impact Projects
After the stage is set & The Community Fund is helping build young creators, that local team works with our nationwide ecosystem of touring artists, educators, and coordinators.
We then can all collaborate with the school districts to inspire, educate, and activate local youth in their local music industry.
How Does It Work?!
The Community Fund
Once an Industry Fund is established in an area and raises enough for the branch to start running studio sessions, we can start to meet kids who need support.
We provide those kids with mentorships using funds raised by fans who donate $8/month or more.
