What does euphoria benefit?

euphoria is organized and presented by Local Boys Do Good (“LBDG”), a non-profit organization exempt from taxation under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Proceeds from euphoria are distributed by LBDG through direct grants to charitable organizations – mostly in upstate South Carolina – that focus on providing sustenance to those in need (food, hunger, and health), educating (through music, performing arts, or otherwise), or supporting children. We are also proud to say that in 2022 the 4-day festival created a local economic impact of $4.76 million.

See our Community Impact page for this year’s grant recipients and more information on our annual economic impact.
