Fifth Annual Funk out with ROCK

About Funk out with ROCK

Funk out with ROCK is a major over-the-top social event featuring live, original funk music, silent auction, raffle and hundreds of San Franciscans. 100% of proceeds benefit San Francisco nonprofit Real Options for City Kids, or ROCK for short. The Master of the Funk competition is an innovative spin on the traditional host committee for major events. All Funk out with ROCK hosts, otherwise known as candidates, go head to head to raise the most revenue from online ticket sales and donations. The candidate with the most "votes" is declared the winner. To entice the public to purchase a ticket and/or donate under their name, all candidates were asked to dress in their funkiest attire and film themselves doing their funkiest of moves. A YouTube video was created and is displayed on the event website for the public to determine who they feel should be crowned the Master of the Funk.
