Brando Crawford is the founder and director of Acting for a Cause, an organization renowned for its groundbreaking philanthropic productions. Crawford’s Acting for a Cause first made headlines in 2020 (BBC, British Vogue, Variety, Chicago Tribune etc), for a series of star studded “guerrilla theatre” productions raising funds entirely for charitable causes. Casts included Oscar Nominee Florence Pugh, Jacob Elordi, and Bella Thorne among many other young Hollywood elites. Acting for a Cause’s digital livestreams have raised over $100,000.00 for charity and attracted millions of international viewers, introducing Gen Z audiences to critical philanthropic initiatives including AIDS research (amfAR), arts education (EIFoundation), wildfire recovery (Entertainment Community Fund), COVID-19 relief (Mount Sinai Hospital), and more.
