Check out the amazing charity
projects that Josh's fans are leading and supporting!
Grobanite
Toy Drive - The annual toy drive is the perfect way to bring
hope to a child in need through the gift of a toy. In 2005, the
Grobanite donation was the largest donation ever received by Toys
for Tots. For more information contact Lynn or Larry Allred at gfctoydrive@gmail.com.
Grobanites
For Africa - Grobanites For Africa is a grassroots charity effort
whereby dedicated fans of Josh Groban attempt to affect positive
change in the lives of African individuals suffering from poverty,
HIV/AIDS, hunger, homelessness, or lack of educational opportunites.
Originally begun as "Grobanites for 46664", GFA is an
official affiliate of Grobanites For Charity. GFA works to increase
awareness of the crises in Africa and encourage support for Africa
projects through Grobanites for Charity and The Josh Groban Foundation.
