Who is AFO?

Artists For Others is a registered charitable trust operating in Tāmaki Makaurau.

Our kaupapa is centred on uplifting, platforming, and educating artists to use their art for social activism, fundraising for humanitarian aid, and raising awareness about sociopolitical causes that are important to them.

We host live music events, art auctions, markets, workshops, and more.

On this website you will find details on our partner artists, as well as links to their socials, and an online store where you can purchase their music and artwork directly.

You deserve to know where every cent of your donation goes, whether it be to staff wages, venue rentals, direct donations to our beneficiaries, or the development of aid programs. Which is why we have committed to 100% financial transparency.

Charitable organisations have operating costs. As organisations grow, it’s not uncommon to see corruption increase, as higher and higher percentages are shaved off the top. We have designed this transparency model, and embedded strict guidelines in our Trust Deed to ensure that no matter how large AFO gets, you can always be sure of exactly where your donations are going.

You can find all of our bank statements and financial records, as well as comprehensive, easy to digest rundowns of our spendings, donations, grants, audits, percentages, and more in our monthly newsletters.
