Amp the Cause

Denver Day of Rock is a free music festival that features five stages of live music along Denver's 16th Street Mall. Denver Day of Rock unites the community through free music and family-friendly entertainment, while also raising funds and awareness for the 55 local nonprofit organizations that it supports year-round through its programming.

Community Day is one day of community service that typically sends over 800 volunteers (unaudited) providing 5,000+ volunteer hours (unaudited) to 55 local nonprofits so they can focus on more critical needs, such as staffing and programming. Amp the Cause provides all supplies and materials for each project, including breakfast, lunch, covered parking, transportation to and from all volunteer sites, a post-event appreciation party, and T-shirts for all volunteers.

Fill the Void was created to alleviate hunger by providing reliable access to food through grocery gift cards. The goal is to fill the void of overrun food banks, to supplement SNAP benefit programs, and to ensure students out of school continue to have reliable access to food. Amp the Cause continually looks to improve signature events and programs, expand into new projects, and work with beneficiary partners to ensure that they are able to fulfill the greatest needs in the community.

Holidays for Kids provides a one-in-a-lifetime holiday experience for children from Title I schools with a population of 90 percent or more free or reduced lunch participants. The day is complete with arts and crafts, face painters, a visit from Santa, a hot lunch, and a backpack full of books and toys for each child.

Celebrity Waiter combines food and fun to support the Amp the Cause mission while enjoying phenomenal food, exciting company, and the entertaining antics of local celebrities who will act as servers for the evening to raise funds for Amp the Cause.
