National Outreach
“Lifebeat is a fabulous organization. What a great opportunity for us to team up together to send some love, some awareness and also bring you some good new music!”- Vanessa Williams
In an effort to reach their fans about the hazards of HIV and STDs, Artists invite Lifebeat to join their national tours. Lifebeat leverages its relationships with concert venues and AIDS Service Organizations (ASO) nationwide, arranging for 2-3 volunteers to be present at each show to provide concert-goers with counseling, testing, STD and HIV /AIDS prevention information.
Lifebeat has been conducting Tour Outreach for 20 years. We’ve toured with Ozzfest, Rock The Bells, Lollapalooza, Dave Matthews Band, U2, Coldplay, Beyoncé, Madonna, John Mayer, Shakira many more. In 2011, Lifebeat conducted outreach on 6 national tours covering 95 cities nationwide.
Lifebeat conducts HIV/AIDS & STD awareness seminars within high schools, universities and community based events. Lifebeat also provides safer sex materials and information to schools, community organizations and individuals.
