Meet Johnnie!

Who I am:
I’m Johnnie! I live in Milwaukee, WI but I’m hopefully headed to Los Angeles soon. I’m studying Marketing at MATC and I work at a nursing home. When I’m not working you can catch me watching Supernatural, The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, or The O.C. If a show or movie has vampires, zombies, or witches in it I’ll probably watch it if I haven’t already seen it. My Keurig is the next best thing since sliced bread. One of my favorite things about Milwaukee is Summerfest, if you haven’t heard about it look it up, it’s fantastic.

My position at Feed Our Children NOW!:
I am the Promo Team Coordinator and help out with social media.

What that means:
I send out emails to the promo team asking them to help us spread the word about events and other things going on with Feed Our Children NOW! With social media I help post on any social networks and help out with anything else that I get asked to do.

How I got here:
I was interested in helping out more so I emailed asking if they needed anyone and after a couple of emails and phone calls later I was brought on to be a part of the team.

Bands I can’t wait to see on Warped:
The Early November, Story of the Year, Real Friends, Man Overboard, Hawthorne Heights, and Motion City Soundtrack.

Breathe Carolina will be on YouNow Thursday @ 7PM PST (10PM EST) to chat about their show at the Troubadour and Feed Our Children NOW!

Meet Steph!

Who I Am: 
Hi everyone! My name is Steph Kinney. I’m 23 years old and I live in Blackwood, NJ. I’m a music lover and a graduate student.

My position at Feed Our Children NOW!:
I’m the Food Drive Coordinator. If you are interested in holding a food (or cellphone) drive in your city please email localdrives@feedourchildrennow.org. I also help with the Financial Literacy Program at the Boys and Girls Club in Camden. When we collect money at Warped the money gets deposited into accounts for disadvantaged children. We have developed a program to help the children put more money in their accounts by making beaded bracelets. 

How I got here:
I volunteered at the Camden date on Warped 2012. It was there that I met Lana Posner the founder of Feed Our Children NOW! After Warped Tour, I sent an email to her about getting more involved. She wanted me to get in contact with some other members of the Feed Our Children NOW! team. After a few months of emails and phone conferences, they mentioned they were in need of someone to coordinate food drives. I volunteered to take on this role and I’m so glad that I did. I love the Feed Our Children NOW! family.

When I’m not working on Feed Our Children NOW! work…
I currently work as a receptionist at a tattoo shop. I’m also finishing up my second semester of graduate school in the School Counseling program at Rowan University. When I’m not at work or at school, you can probably find me at the gym or at a local park. I love running and exercising! I also really love going to concerts - I try to go to at least one a month; there’s nothing like live music.

Bands I can’t wait to see on Warped Tour:
VersaEmerge, The Used and The Early November! My favorite band off Warped is Paramore (been a fan since 2005), I’m so bummed they aren’t on Warped this year!
