Beyoncé's BeyGOOD Foundation is pledging significant funds to aid fire-relief efforts in the Los Angeles area, and the superstar herself is postponing a planned 1/14 tour announcement "due to the devastation."
BeyGOOD Foundation has donated $2.5m to its L.A. Fire Relief Fund, with Beyoncé writing on Instagram, "Los Angeles, we stand with you."
The money will assist families in Altadena and Pasadena who've lost their homes during the ongoing blazes, as well as churches and community centers aiming to address the immediate needs of residents. Those who wish to donate or obtain additional information can do so by clicking here.
She later returned to Instagram to reveal that tour details would be pushed until "a later date" while she continues "to pray for healing and rebuilding for the families suffering from trauma and loss."
Meanwhile, Metallica's All Within My Hands Foundation is giving $250,000 each to the California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Recovery Fund and the Pasadena Community Foundation’s Eaton Fire Relief and Recovery Fund.
