Musicians featuring on ‘SurfAid - The Music’ include: Michael Franti, John Butler, The Black Seeds, Thievery Corporation, Kelley James, Liam Finn, Bob Marley, Crowded House with Eddie Vedder and more, with all artists donating their songs to help support SurfAid International’s mission.
The musicians and their songs were carefully selected to reflect the situation in Nias and Mentawai, and send SurfAid International’s message to a wider audience.
SurfAid International’s core goal is to empower these communities so as to foster health and resilience that is sustainable.
Currently, SurfAId International are also trying to raise US$305,000 to provide 104 facilities in eight communities in the Alasa and Afulu sub-districts. The population serviced will be 10,435 people, and average expenditure per community resident will be US$29.
