On Activism
“I couldn’t wait to get back to where there were folkies and the antiwar and civil rights movements,” she says. “There were so many great music and political scenes going on in the late ‘60s in Cambridge.”
Activism On Tour
At nearly every concert, Bonnie offers terrific, hand-selected seats to benefit local non-profit organizations working on issues of safe and sustainable energy, environmental protection, peace with justice and beyond. Some of these limited tickets (called Special Benefit Seats) go on-sale through bonnieraitt.com in advance of the general on-sale for each date. To stay informed about when special benefit seats will go on-sale, please join the Mailing List.
For concerts where the ticketing platform can accommodate, and as a way to compete with scalpers, another batch of limited tickets (called Platinum Tickets) are made available during the general on-sale (via the venue’s official ticketing website.) These Platinum Tickets and are a part of the Seats for Change Fund. Seats for Change is a program Bonnie Raitt has initiated to designate that $25 of your ticket purchase be donated to charity. Please visit www.seatsforchangefund.org to learn more about this contribution.
Whenever possible (due to venue feasibility,) Bonnie’s team coordinates the presence of non-profit organizations at Bonnie’s concerts to share information about their work with concertgoers. Please visit these information tables to learn more about the grassroots efforts underway in your community!
