It was conceived by Frank Bombaci, Jr. as his high school senior project, under the notion to bring thousands of people together to hear some of the best local and national music around for charity. It donates over 70 percent of all proceeds to select national and local charities."Lupe Fiasco to Headline B.O.M.B. Fest 2010 in Connecticut". PRS News. March 25, 2010.
