TWLOHA

Non-profit organization To Write Love on Her Arms is excited to announce they will be going on tour with Jarrod Gorbel (formerly of The Honorary Title) in support of his first solo album. TWLOHA’s Chad Moses will be speaking at each show, sharing the organization’s message of hope, help and community. TWLOHA info and merch will also be available. For tour dates and to buy tickets, please go to: http://jarrodgorbelmusic.com/shows/.

“TWLOHA spoke to me personally on many levels, experiences that I had lived through myself and of those very close to me. Much of my songwriting is taken from both these places, and this has helped form the bond I have between my fans and I, whether it was the The Honorary Title days or my current solo material, my lyrics and songs have been personally therapeutic and helpful to those who have followed my career. TWLOHA encourages people to seek help, to let them know that it is available, and provides stories of others that allow relate-ability. I hope my songs can do the same, says Jarrod Gorbel.”

To Write Love on Her Arms is a non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide. TWLOHA exists to encourage, inform, inspire and also to invest directly into treatment and recovery. Since its start in 2006, they have donated over $850,000 directly into treatment and recovery and have answered over 150,000 emails in over 100 countries.

Since 2006, TWLOHA has been flourishing and continues to grow. TWLOHA has won numerous accolades including “Must Follow Non-Profit” award at this year’s Mashable Awards, a full-page color ad in USA TODAY (valued over $185k) by winning the AmericaWants Campaign and $100,000 in the Chase Community Giving Contest, coming in 2ndplace. To promote TWLOHA in the Chase Community Giving Contest, Miley Cyrus, Joaquin Phoenix, and Liv Tyler made a special video together with the founder of TWLOHA.
