This year we have 16 full tour nonprofits coming out, so stop by the area when you head out and check to see what you can do to help out.
The nonprofits out this year are: Unite the United, Music Saves Lives, Boarding for Breast Cancer, Action for Animals, Invisible Children, To Write Love on Her Arms, FM World Charities, Peta2, Punk Junk, Declare yourself, Warped Eco Initative, 11:11 AM, Rock for Health, Youth for a Democratic Society, Keep a Breast, and the One Campaign.
With last year's nonprofit area being such a success, we have a huge job ahead of us this year. Our goal has always been to improve upon years past, and that means this year we really need your help! We need organizations, volunteers, bands, labels, and sponsors of all types that are interested in supporting our tour's numerous charitable endeavors.

The other big thing to keep in mind is the Aderra.net wristband. Aderra has partnered wih Unite the United and Ernie Ball to record and bring the live concert experience to you the same day! Now you can buy a wristband with an embedded USB drive and acually take home a live recording of all the battle of the band winners. So come out and see us in the Area or by the Stage!
We really hope to see you out in the area this year. We've got some even more exciting things we're keeping underwraps so check back in a few weeks and see what's new with Unite the United and Vans Warped Tour 2008!

Thanks to all of the hard work from the Unite the United crew who have worked so hard out on Warped Tour this summer!! Unite the United and the Vans Warped Tour have teamed up with Books For America and collected more than 1,100 books to help provide books for inner city kids, schools, preschools, libraries, and retirement homes who may not otherwise have access to them. Most of all we want to thank each of you who brought your old books for others to enjoy! You have truly made a difference!
