Roc Nation and the NFL will kick off their social outreach initiative, Inspire Change, on Thursday in Chicago. Coinciding with the NFL's season-opener (Green Bay at Chicago) and Roc/NFL's newly announced partnership, the two agencies will host the first event from the Songs of the Season concert series at Chicago's Grant Park and will feature Meek Mill, Meghan Trainor and Rapsody.
TMZ has reported that attached to the concert, Roc/NFL will donate $400k to two Chicago charities: The Better Boys Foundation Family Services and Crusher's Club. Both organizations are designed to help local at-risk youth. Mill, Trainor, Rapsody and Roc Nation rapper Vic Mensa will make visits to the programs ahead of the NFL kickoff concert.
Along with headlining the concert, Trainor and Mill are billed as advocates of Inspire Change, the NFL's initiative to support player and teams' efforts to focus on education, police and community relations and criminal justice reform.
