Splendour In The Grass has revealed the local community groups and organisations who will share in $35,000 of community grants.
Each year, the music festival provides cash donations to a range of local groups, totaling over $500,000 throughout the Byron Bay shire since 2000.
Splendour is again donating $1 from every ticket sold to its 2018 event last month to six groups and services, ensuring the annual three-day event gives back to the community.
See the full list of recipients below:
- Byron Bay Public School: $2,000
- The Pocket Public School: $10,000
- Human Nature Adventure Therapy: $3,000
- Social Futures: $5,000
- Mullumbimby Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Men’s Group: $10,000
- Ocean Shores Primary School: $ 5,000
"We dearly love this region that Splendour has called home for 18 years. Nurturing local charities, community groups and initiatives is very important to us and we love that we can contribute in this way," Splendour co-producers Jessica Ducrou and Paul Piticco said in a joint statement.
"We hope that this year’s funding will touch many live across the northern rivers."
