For the summer portion of the tour, the co-headliners made the powerful decision to give back to two charity organizations that are close to their hearts. In taking a portion of their ticket sales, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH donated $95,000 to C.O.P.S - Concerns Of Police Survivors--whose mission is rebuilding shattered lives of survivors and co-workers affected by line of duty deaths, through partnerships with law enforcement and the community--and BREAKING BENJAMIN donated $95,000 to Prevent Child Abuse America--which counteracts the abuse and neglect of our nation’s children by promoting services that improve child well-being and developing programs programs to support the healthy development of children and prevent abuse before it can occur.
For the fall tour, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH will donate a portion of their ticket sales to VETPAW (Veterans Empowered to Protect African Wildlife). The mission of VETPAW is to end the illegal poaching of Rhinos, Elephants and other endangered species. VETPAW does this by utilizing the unrivaled skills and experience of highly trained combat veterans to form anti poaching units, train local park rangers and support their communities.
BREAKING BENJAMIN will donate a portion of ticket sales to a charity the band has longtime supported, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, in an effort to help further research to end childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
