On March 19, 2016 Grand Rapids takes part in the GLOBAL HipHop4Flint initiative! We join over 45 hip hop communities around the world in a day of solidarity for our brothers and sisters in Flint. Each city is hosting fundraising events to raise the funds to purchase effective home water filtration systems for 500+ families. Help us help them by simply coming out and having a great time!

We are asking for a $10 donation to help us raise the funds needed. If you have not yet had a chance to help our brothers and sisters in Flint here is your chance.
