Theory of Change (TOC) was established in October 2023. Music, from listening to creating, holds a special place in the life experiences of both founders. Noelani, a local DJ and music producer, combines their passion for music with a background as a labor and community organizer, recognizing the transformative power of creative spaces. Christina, an entrepreneur and music lover, intertwines her love for music with her role as a community organizer, seeing the natural parallels between music and community building.
TOC's core identity revolves around its mission to build community through monthly sound room and music share events. These gatherings highlight collaboration among performers and offer party-goers a diverse and enriching music-listening experience. What makes TOC truly unique is its commitment to building and supporting others; all profits generated from event sales at these events directly uplift and support local organizations and mutual aid groups. In essence, while TOC operates as a for-profit entity, every dollar earned contributes to making a meaningful impact in the community.
In summary, Theory of Change is not just an event organizer; it's a catalyst for community growth and positive change. By seamlessly blending the love of music with a commitment to social impact, TOC turns every event into an opportunity to amplify the collective voice of the community and transform entertainment into empowerment.
