“We intend to expand Rock the RoC year after year as a space where the global community can come together to impactfully celebrate CBD pioneer Charlotte Figi and her legacy surrounding cannabinoid therapy,” said Heather Jackson, Realm of Caring’s President. “The beautiful thing about music is it carries out the three messages we hope individuals gain from this experience: to inspire, build connections and facilitate action toward a greater cause.”

Fans, friends and advocates are encouraged to support global change for plant medicine by donating through RockTheRoC.org. Event sponsor Charlotte’s Web joins RoC in calling on businesses worldwide to join the initiative.

“When you #RockTheRoC, you are improving the life of someone who is most likely out of medical options,” Jackson continued. “You are helping someone to take control of their health through plant therapy and increasing access to potentially life-saving therapies and grants that can completely change the trajectory for a family in need.”
