This concert event is a kickoff of an entertainment experience that will tour the country and reach hundreds of thousands of families every year. "Rock Your Own Lyrics" is an interactive musical experience engaging, enlightening and empowering kids to celebrate their own individuality and uniqueness. They will also realize the impact of their words and actions and leave this event knowing they can make a difference in their world.
"Because music is a universal language, we are using it to reach our youth and truly make an impact," says Free2Luv CEO and Co-Founder, Tonya Sandis. "When we go into communities, we want our children to know that they are powerful and they have a voice, and it is important to use it for good. We believe the bullying epidemic begins with low self-esteem and if we work to change that, we can change the face of this epidemic."
"I myself have experienced bullying and I look forward to sharing my story and how music is such a powerful tool to heal. I can't wait to share my message that every person has the opportunity to be who they truly are and follow their passion," says 15 year old Gabbie Rae. "I believe through music we can come together, spread the message that bullying is not ok and find a way to end it."
With the rise in teen suicides, it is Free2Luv's passion to reach as many communities and children as possible to spread the word that each child has their own unique purpose. Through their social awareness campaign, community outreach, celebrity ambassadors, youth advocates and corporate alliances, Free2Luv is breaking down the barriers of hate and celebrating everyone's individuality and freedom to love.
