Gumbo Square Band has been part of the charity: water community since 2022.
The Story of The Gumbo Square Band
It wasn’t until Serge Grad stumbled through the dense fog on Hastings Street in Vancouver….
That he saw the fragile side of humanity, in the hundreds of a faces in front of him, the voiceless that could be found in every country in the world. What he encountered weighed heavily on his mind. This brought the birth of the song, Lonely Hearts, co-written with long-time friend and lyrical songstress, Amy Zahedi.
It was soon after that he contacted musicians that he had known for a long time, to form The Gumbo Square Band. Together, they all shared the same desire: to make other people’s lives better. Removing the borders by incorporating talent from all over the world, this created a dynamic that erased discrimination within the band.

Our commitment is not only related to music. The Gumbo Square Band is also involved in social and sociological topics such as autism, bullying, homeless people and sex trafficking. We have now added global water shortages to our focused list of concerns. Going against all kind of discrimination is definitely more than a task. Few songs have been dedicated to those who need a helping hand.

Since charity: water was founded in 2006, we’ve been chasing one ambitious goal: ending the global water crisis. Since then, we’ve funded 138,003 water projects, serving over 17 million people.
From the beginning, we’ve made a few promises:
100% of the money donated to charity: water goes directly to funding clean water projects. Private donors cover our operating costs, which means every penny of every dollar can go where it’s needed most.
We don’t expect you to take our word for it. Our next-level commitment to tracking and transparency means we don’t just tell you you’re having an impact. We show you, with GPS coordinates and photos of the exact project(s) you’ve helped fund.
We don’t just drop in, build a well and disappear. When we provide water for a community, we want the impact to be for good — which means we work closely with local partners, remaining invested in the integrity of projects for the long haul.
Funded by campaigns or donations.
