Sound Relief Raises over $8m!

I am so happy that the hard work of the Sound Relief team has led to over $8m being raised for Victorian bushfire survivors and Queensland flood relief. ¬†From my Sunday night email to the Red Cross, Think Creative, TEN, DMG, the Herald-Sun and others – to the rallying of acts, to the eventual merging and staging with the amazing crew at the Mushroom Group and the Sydney Crew of Pope, Chugg, Segreto and Lang – it was a wild ride, with a fantastic outcome.

Here’s the link to the accounts with a full breakdown of money raised.

And here are some pictures I took at the Media Conference today at the MCG.

Finally, one VERY important thing to note – TODAY is the last day to make a donation to the Bushfire Appeal through the Red Cross. ¬†They close the books tomorrow – so make sure that you make any final donations TODAY, here!
