Rada, a place of renewal
FOURWAYS – Rada and Howie Combrink take to the arts for rape, alcohol, drugs and abuse awareness.
Rada and Howie Combrink have teamed up to create an album that has struck the hearts of the community.
Rada Unearthed, the division which contributes to the arts, has launched a compilation album featuring a bevvy of South African talent. The contemporary pop album features new hit singles from both unknown and established artists, including the likes of Prime Circle, Caroline Borole, Ashlinn Gray and more.
Rada (which is the acronym for rape, alcohol, drugs and abuse), is a non-profit company that offers healing and it believes that people are accountable to themselves. The goal is to eliminate social safety nets and, instead, give people the tools they need to grow. The core of Rada’s healing process is illustrated by Theodore Roosevelt’s quote, ‘Believe you can and you’re halfway there’. While this reference is often reduced to just another inspirational quote with more bark than bite, it is this philosophy that is reflected by Rada Unearthed.
In Early 2015, Howie Combrink was approached by Rada Unearthed to feature on its compilation album. The project would not only raise awareness for Rada Healing, but through the music, bring a message of hope and restoration.
Rada, in all its endeavours, strives to effect change; it aims to combat addiction and life’s cruellest atrocities by building comprehensive renewal centres worldwide. While involved in various corporate social investment projects, the non-profit company also contributes to the arts.
For Combrink, it was a sure bet. The singer-songwriter wholeheartedly committed his time and energy to the project. “Believe is a song I wrote about my observations of people’s lives. I think a lot of people, in general, need to believe in themselves a little more. The world is our playground and it’s important to take advantage of everything life has to offer. Believe this world is yours.”
Believe forms part of an 18-track South African pop compilation.
