SONY MUSIC SETS UP $100M FUND

Sony Music Group launched a $100m fund today to support social justice and anti-racist initiatives around the world and will immediately begin to donate to organizations that foster equal rights.

“Racial injustice is a global issue that affects our artists, songwriters, our people and of course society at large,” Sony Music Group Chairman Rob Stringer said. “We stand against discrimination everywhere and we will take action accordingly with our community fully involved in effectively using these funds.”

Sony Music Group has established this fund with the full support of the initiatives undertaken by our sister entertainment company, Sony Pictures Entertainment and all divisions of Sony Corporation.
