Request for Audio Hosting Support (Non-Profit Individual Project)

To whom it may concern,
I'm building a non-profit website for a Christian and Arab speaking poet and theologian who creates original audio content, including poetry/Christian-based songs. He has made his work known locally, which has impacted people of all faiths and cultures by providing comfort in trying times.
Now I was able to get him a Basic web hosting and I am creating a custom website for him but he needs to stream his growing audio library (30 files now, possibly 200+ in 1 year), so a separate hosting for audio files with direct-link access and abundant bandwidth is needed.
I'm interested in knowing if any of the gentle providers or maybe you reading this can donate audio file hosting space with generous bandwidth to support this initiative. Especially that it will be Christian content in the middle east where it is needed the most and non-profit.
If you are interested to help, I can disclose relevant and transparent information and answer any question. And since I am not sure if DM works on here or not you may also use this form if you prefer to contact me there.
Thank you.

I love this! I am working on a similar project and can sure help.
Where's the audience? Obviously the middle east. I think we may be able to help. Get in touch via DM.
You sure the web hosting won't be suitable for it? Just put it behind a CDN like CloudFlare Free plan, you will probably be fine, assuming the web hosting account has enough storage. How big is each audio file?
Hi MikeA Im not sure yet but I will aim to help him to upload only with 128kbps for web friendly streaming.
archive.org is a great resource for this type of content, if it is not paywalled. They will host it for free with unlimited bandwidth, and you can deep-link to the files in the player.
Exactly. I actually considered it it is a great option. The only concern is that some of the Christian songs that the poet writes are performed by singers in a studio, and I’m not sure if all parties will be okay with publishing them with the internet archive license. I’ll check with him again.
how much space you need? I offer free web hosting for NGO/charities here. default disk space is 5GB with unlimited bandwidth but if you need more you can contact me to add more space for free.
Archive.org
Honestly, would recommend uploading to YouTube if not just for a backup. I hate to see websites that eventually go offline for one reason and another without any archived version available.
@CharityHost_org time to shine.
