WHO: Platinum-selling rap artist Fat Joe, Boost Mobile RockCorps - an "around the way revolution" that is empowering young adults with the motivation and resources necessary to create immediate, long-lasting improvements to communities in need.

WHAT: Boost Mobile RockCorps is combining the power of music, community and volunteerism to breed a new generation of volunteers. In exchange for contributing four hours of community service work at Boost Mobile RockCorps projects, youth volunteers will receive tickets to popular music concerts in their area. Boost Mobile RockCorps is partnering with non-profit agencies to organize 50 charity projects this summer offering young people the opportunity to get involved in various volunteer organizations and projects throughout the nation.

The Boost Mobile RockCorps movement returns this weekend to Washington, D.C., after successful volunteer efforts in Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Arlington, Va., and Chicago. The weekend's event supports the Latin American Youth Center. Local youth-oriented radio stations are helping recruit Boost Mobile RockCorps volunteers and are awarding community service spots to lucky listeners.
