SDR Equal Rights Fundraisers

Posted on November 11th, 2016

With all of the hate in the world right now, we as a label and community decided we needed to do our part in helping those in need. Today we are launching three separate SDR fundraisers to help minority groups who are being affected by inequality and hate. We are using our small platform (which we are very fortunate of) to reach out to you all and ask for your help in order to make these fundraisers successful. You can read about each below and decide if you'd like to help with each. Thank you for reading and please keep loving each other and creating together.

"Bandcamp Fundraiser"

Our Bandcamp has always had all of our releases for "Pay what you want". This allows listeners to easily access digital music and pay whatever they please for it. We have never taken profit from these donations and have instead forwarded the sales to the respected artists. This will now change until the end of 2016. From here until the end of the year, we will be taking whatever donations we receive and forward them to KIND (Kids In Need of Defense). KIND focuses on helping immigrant children gain U.S. protection. Learn more about KIND here and stream our annual compilation album Music For November Vol.2 below to be directed to our Bandcamp page.

"eBay Test Press Fundraiser"

We have never made test presses available to public, but at this time we'd like to use these items in a beneficial way. For one week, these test presses will be up for bid, and each winning bid will donated to SPLC (Southern Poverty Law Center). SPLC focuses on fighting for equal rights and against hate. Learn more about SPLC here and read the list of items up for bid below:

I Was Afraid - Lonely Frontier 7" Test Press Vinyl Record

I Was Afraid - Endless Ecstasy Test Cassette Tape

Petty Thief - Whatever Keeps You Standing Test Cassette Tape

Snakeway - Vortex Of Time Test Cassette Tape

Youth Pool - Dive In Test Cassette Tape

"SDR Bundle Fundraiser"

We've put together some heavily discounted bundles right here on our store for you all to take advantage of. These sales will be directed to NOW (National Organization of Women) to fight for women's equality rights. Learn more about NOW here and grab one of the bundles here.

If none of these fundraisers interests you or you don't see a group that you'd like to support, that is totally fine. You can click here to be directed to a page that has many other Pro-Women/Pro-Immigrant/Anti-Bigot organizations that you can donate to directly.
