Kids Rock For Kids
A brooklyn-Based nonprofit that gives young musicians a place to grow, create, and belong. We provide stages, rehearsal rooms, recording opportunities, and a community where young artists can express themselves, support each other, and gain confidence in who they are becoming. Our mission is to ensure that any young person with a passion for music has access to the people, the spaces, and the experiences that help them find their voice and take the next step in their creative journey.
“Your organization has literally changed lives.” - Kelly Clarkson
Yeah… they’re teenagerS
Filmed at the KRFK 2025 Come Together Festival, Yoyoka & Ai — musical prodigies from Japan — composed and arranged mind-blowing originals, and joined a lineup of incredible talents in our 4-day festival of rock, pop, blues and jazz.
KRFK brought together six extraordinary young performers from NYC, New Jersey, Las Vegas, California and Japan for a mind-blowing collaboration of Hysteria by Muse.
COMMUNITY. CONNECTION. COLLABORATION.
“We all understand the transformative power of music... a Brooklyn nonprofit called Kids Rock For Kids has figured out how to harness that potential for good.”
- David Furst, Morning Edition, WNYC
