It takes a lot of volunteers to make BB&T's Party in the Park happen for seventeen consecutive weeks. That's why each year at BB&T's Party in the Park there are five non-profit organizations selected that help EventZone by providing volunteers and also spreading the word about this great concert series. For their support and help, each of the non-profit organizations will receive 10% of the net proceeds from the 2008 concert series. It's just another way that EventZone supports the Roanoke community - but we certainly could not provide this support if it weren't for the 18,000+ persons who will come and enjoy BB&T's Party in the Park this summer - this truly is a "Party With A Purpose."

Since the 2005 Party in the Park, EventZone has donated $38,285 to local non-profit organizations. These partnering groups have included: Mental Health Assoc., Arts Council, JASON Project @ Blue Ridge Public TV, Downtown Learning Center, CASA, Juvenile Diabetes, Jefferson Center, Downtown Music Lab, St. Francis Assisi Dog Service, Roanoke Symphony, Boys & Girls Club, New Horizons Health and Mill Mountain Theater.
