JAM Network was born from a simple question: How can we follow the music we love while supporting the values we live by? Our founder, Kara, realized that touring the country often meant spending time and money in places where local policies didn't align with her commitment to social justice.

We believe every tour stop is an opportunity for progress. By connecting fans with local grassroots organizations, JAM Network transforms the live music experience into a powerful engine for community impact and social change.

We mainly fundraise for third-party organizations in the communities we visit on tour. The tours we primarily focus on are Goose and Phish, but anticipate to grow to following The Disco Biscuits, JRAD, and Billy Strings.

Note: We are not affiliated with any of the bands, rather we are fan-run organization leveraging our community for social impact.

We are committed to supporting the rights and dignity of all people, including migrants, refugees, and those navigating borders, and we oppose all forms of systemic discrimination and dehumanization.

Everyone deserves the fundamental freedom to make decisions about their own body and future, and we actively support movements that protect and expand comprehensive, stigma-free reproductive care for all people.
