The Founder
Once a touring musician, Oz Bayldon’s travels led him to Nepal where he encountered the poverty faced by the country’s homeless children for the first time. Determined to make a difference, Oz set about raising funds to make his vision of a community-run and ethical orphanage a reality. He did so in his own crazy, adrenalin-junkie way, using his musical links to create unique and extreme fundraising events and supporting gigs around the world. Rocker, doting father and a man who will never give up on his dream – Oz embodies the passion, dedication and musical roots of Music4Children.
