ABOUT JIM CAPALDI

CHARITY

Jim was socially and environmentally conscious, expressing his concerns through lyrics. He supported raising awareness for children in Brazilian favelas. The Jim Capaldi Music & Culture Centre was created in his honor after his passing. The center aims to prevent risky behaviors in children at risk of drug addiction, gang violence, or teenage pregnancies through music and community-building. Donate or learn more via the link below.
