Community Fund Stories

For the past couple of years, AnglicareSA has been a beneficiary of tickets to Adelaide Fringe events through the Fringe Community Fund. 

These tickets have been generously donated by Adelaide Fringe to reach community members, children, young people and families who ordinarily wouldn't attend Fringe shows without support.

A group from our Exceptional Needs program went to see Djuki Mala.  For an hour, they laughed, they felt included and they absolutely loved the show.

Tickets to other shows were distributed among our many Foster Care families, ensuring that Aboriginal, CALD and other children and young people in Care had the opportunity to attend with their 'for now families' or Support Workers/Mentors.  They all had a wonderful time. 

One family said, 'We never imagined that the Fringe was for us, but we had the best time.  Our little ones are Aboriginal, they just loved SPIRIT, and had photos taken with the cast.  They loved the chance to share their culture with us.'

Adelaide Fringe Foundation and Fringe supporters THANK YOU!  Know that the tickets reached those you wanted to reach, and everyone had a brilliant and fun time.

– AnglicareSA

    "This grant enabled me to purchase marketing and reach a demographic that I have otherwise not been able to reach over the years of performing at the Adelaide Fringe. It took the financial strain off of some of the venue hire and meant that I actually came out of this year’s Fringe in profit! Thank you so much to everyone who has donated to the Artist Fund." - Michaela Burger
