Rob Machado Foundation Benefit

On Monday, November 12, the Rob Machado Foundation (RMF), founded by surfing legend Rob Machado, presents its first-ever benefit concert featuring solo acoustic sets from Goo Goo Dolls frontman John Rzeznik and Switchfoot frontman Jon Foreman, as well as a set from Jon Swift joined by Machado. Proceeds will benefit The Rob Machado Foundation, a nonprofit that Machado founded in 2004 to support environmental programs worldwide. The foundation’s primary mission is to provide funding and initiate educational programs focused on helping children understand their contribution towards a healthy earth. Two specific programs benefiting from the evening are the local community-recycling program and Hydration Nation, a collaboration between RMF and Hurley’s H20 charity giving program. Tickets are $40.
