Olivia Rodrigo has announced a $10 million or ₱622 million donation to various nonprofit organizations through proceeds from her Daisy Chain Fields festival, taking place in Irvine, California, on August 29 (US time).
“It’s a real honor to announce that we are donating $10 million to be given directly to these 10 nonprofit partners," she said at a press conference as reported by Billboard. "I’m so excited for tomorrow, I’ll see you guys there."
It was in June when the Filipino-American singer announced Daisy Chain Fields, an all-women music festival where 100 percent of the net proceeds will benefit charities dedicated to advancing and advocating for women and girls.
The festival features a star-studded lineup that includes Bikini Kill, Chappell Roan, Doechii, Eli Garbage, Santigold, and The Breeders, among others.
Karen O, Sarah McLachlan, and Stevie Nicks are also set to appear as special guests, while Olivia herself will take the stage at the event.
“The lineup is truly insane and full of my heroes and friends. I firmly believe that joy, community, and music can be the drivers of meaningful change and I’m hopeful this festival will be just that," she remarked at that time.
Daisy Chain Fields will support 10 organizations: Baby2Baby, Black Mamas Matter Alliance, the Center for Reproductive Rights, FreeFrom, Jhpiego, Johns Hopkins Center for Indigenous Health, National Domestic Workers Alliance, National Institute for Reproductive Health, National Women’s Law Center, and Planned Parenthood.
“By bringing together women in music and organizations helping shape a better future for women and girls, I hope we can build a community that inspires hope and positive change,” Olivia said in a previous statement.

Back in October 2024, Olivia donated the net proceeds from the Philippine leg of her Guts Tour to the nonprofit organization Jhpiego. She also personally visited the organization’s office while she was in Manila.
"I’m SO stoked that all the net ticket sales from last night could be donated to @jhpiego through my fund 4 good. I got to visit the organization while I was in Manila and was so impressed by the work they are doing providing healthcare to women and girls in the Philippines," she announced at that time.
Olivia's Fund 4 Good is "a global initiative committed to building an equitable and just future for all women and girls through direct support of community-based non-profits that champion girls' education, support reproductive rights and prevent gender-based violence."
