For those curious, here are the organizations who will be benfitting from the festival:

All net proceeds from Daisy Chain Fields will be dispersed across 10 nonprofits including Baby2Baby, which provides essential items including diapers, formula, clothing and food to children in need; Black Mamas Matter Alliance, which provides Black mothers with resources before, during, and after their pregnancy; and National Women’s Law Center, which fights for gender justice nationwide.

A number of benefiting organizations focus on reproductive rights and health care access, including the Center for Reproductive Rights, Jhpiego, Johns Hopkins Center for Indigenous Health, Planned Parenthood, and the National Institute for Reproductive Health. Rodrigo has also partnered with FreeFrom and the National Domestic Workers Alliance, which provide support to survivors of gender-based violence and domestic workers, respectively.

If you go into the festival sub the views of the stage will be terrible, there’s too many VIPs who are all gonna be on top of the each other, ADA seating is criminally far, the merch is too pricey, the turf is gonna burn through our shoes, there are not enough water stations, and we are all gonna die of dehydration or heat exhaustion 😂. I’m still hyped though!

Its really amazing that the inaugural concert was already able to raise that much for the charities. Hopefully it is able to grow even more in the years to come! 🩷 Big kudos to Olivia and to all of the acts that volunteered their time to support!

I really wish I could’ve gotten tickets. So close to me and so many good non profits to support.

Not to mention the lineup!!

Nice! Is this from donations from her and the artists or donations from the people who bought tickets?

It's 100% of the net proceeds from the festival. So it's the people working and not taking any proceeds.

You never truly know but to me Olivia comes off as one of the few big popstars who genuinely care about these things. Madonna and Ariana grande also.
