harringrove for Australia was a charity auction in Stranger Things fandom, organized to raise funds for those affected by the Australian bushfires in early 2020. All fanworks were focused on the pairing of Billy Hargrove/Steve Harrington, also known as Harringrove. The auction had a rather short turn around, giving the creators just a month and half to complete their fanworks for the winning bidders.

62 creators offered items for auction, and $8,542AUD ($5,717USD) was raised for 12 charities.[1]
