Plugged In Live: A Concert Streamed Around the World

On May 28, the Plugged In bands will stream live into the homes of thousands of friends, relatives, and supporters throughout the world from the Natick studios of Young Broadcasters.   Performing in 10-minute increments over 8 hours, more than 25 Plugged In bands will be heard and seen through pay-per-view as well as downloads after the event.

In addition to “Plugged In Live” being an exciting event for students and their families and friends, it is also a very critical fundraiser for Plugged In.  The Plugged In board is always working to secure sponsorships, grants, and other forms of support in order to ensure the sustainability of Plugged In and enable more kids to participate in the coming years, regardless of their ability to pay.

Here are some ways you can help to support Plugged In starting TODAY!
