Our Foundation
We're all in this together.
Inspired by late Sublime front man Bradley Nowell, the Nowell Family Foundation provides addiction recovery services to the music community through the combined strength of the industry and those who have been touched by the power of music.
When Jakob Nowell (Bradley's son) got clean and sober, the plan to create the Nowell Family Foundation evolved. As Papa Nowell (Bradley's father) says, "We have finally found something we truly believe in doing – and that's helping others who are struggling with addiction."
Kellie Nowell (Bradley's sister), who is actively involved as the executive director, is dedicated to the growth of the Foundation and to ensuring its stability, allowing it to serve others for many years to come.
The Nowell Family Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) public benefit corporation.
