The background: Four and a half years ago, a core group of friends  
brought 30 artists together to raise funds for a treasured member of  
the community, Wert Terry, who was tragically lost to cancer.  The  
historic event was called For the Love.  No one would ever forget  
this moving day. In his memory, NextAid and Scott Manning (SFbyDef)  
brought the San Francisco House Music community came together again  
in 2004 for the kids. NextAid built a performance space in Wert’s  
memory from funds raised at the three For the Kids events.

Now in its third year, the event is making an even greater impact on  
the community it’s supporting in South Africa. This event is called  
For the Future and is growing in diversity, musically, and  
demographically. This event will be “green” with recycling,  
encouragement of carpooling, and the purchasing of carbon credits to  
offset the energy utilized to produce the event. Proceeds will  
continue to go towards NextAid’s Pilot project: an ecological  
children’s center in South Africa that will serve as a safe home for  
50 children orphaned by AIDS, a multi-purpose center for the greater  
community, and a model for future projects throughout Africa. Working  
with a renowned ecological architect and experienced natural  
builders, NextAid broke ground in July 2005 with an earth-bag  
building workshop, kicking off the construction of the Dennilton  
center for Youth with a Vision (YWAV). Now 5 buildings and supporting  
structures are completed on site including the “Wert Terry Music and  
Performance Center,” outdoor energy-efficient kitchen and seating  
area, 2 earth-bag offices, composting toilets, and a straw bale  
children’s house.

One main sponsor of this event is Whet Travel, committed to NextAid  
as its official charity of choice. On the Groove Cruise, July 20 to  
23, departing LA and cruising to Ensenada with Bad Boy Bill, Donald  
Glaude, Scooter and Lavelle, Scotty Boy, D:Fuse, and more! Go to  
www.WhetTravel.com, click on the Groove Cruise and save $50 per  
person when you mention NextAid and NextAid receives a matching  
donation, or call 877-GET-WHET (877-438-9438)
