Darren's Tip Jar - Nominate anyone from the entertainment or hospitality industry

Loading player...
East Coast Radio, Jacaranda FM, and Smile FM have teamed up with LottoLand to lend a helping hand to those who cannot earn an income during lockdown. Each station will fill their “Tip Jar” with a share of R300 000, resulting in a collective R900 000 in aid for the people who keep these industries afloat.

The financial assistance will help staff who work in industries such as hospitality, entertainment, performing arts, eventing, and the local cleaning industry – those industries hardest hit by alcohol banns and public gathering prohibitions.
