Earlier in the month Dillon Francis announced that he’d be launching a charity auction of 37 one of a kind T-Shirts for ‘After School Matters’ a non-profit organisation that offers after school programs for low income Chicago teens. Each t-shirt up for grabs, custom made for Francis’ video “Without You” feat Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, are now in the hands of their generous bidders as the man soon to be on Oz shores with the Big Day Out tour made this announcement via his Facebook page –

I am very proud to announce that the charity t-shirt auction raised over $6,000, with the highest bidding shirt reaching $1,500!!! Through this donation, the charity organization “After School Matters” will be able to fund a professional instructor for one program cycle. Their mission is to help provide Chicago public high school teens with the opportunity to gain critical skills for college, work, and beyond….Thank you to everybody who participated. For those who won.. you are truly making a difference.

Massive props to team Francis for raising the money for a good much needed cause and word is Mad Decent label mates and Chicago natives Flosstradamus are soon to do their bit for After School Matters in the near future.

Dillon Francis will play next years Big Day Out alongside Major Lazer, Steve Angello, Flosstradamus and more. For now dive into his latest collaboration “Im The One” with Flux Pavillion.
