The Northwest music scene is more than just music. The following are a list of Northwest-based non-profit organizations that many Northwest bands have supported. Please help.

Home Alive is a collective of performance and visual artists (and other freaks) hell bent on fighting all forms of violence including rape, domestic abuse, gay/lesbian bashing, racism, and all forms of oppression. They support people choosing any form of self-defense that is necessary to survive in any given situation- ANYTHING that keeps us alive.

Since the brutal rape and murder of Mia Zapata on July 7, 1993, we are dedicated to presenting an on-going series of high-intensity music, art, theater, film and video events that raise money to provide our community with free or affordable self-defense workshops, educational material, resource information, and a nagging reminder that none of us are safe.
