Beyoncé and Jay-Z have teamed up with The Prince’s Trust and Global Citizen as part of the BeyGOOD foundation. In a release from Ivy McGregor, director of philanthropy and corporate relations for Parkwood Entertainment, said that the program is “calling upon you to lift your voices.”
“Wherever you are and whatever skills, talents and resources you possess, are of value to others in your community, country and across the globe,” she added.
So if your bank account is lacking but you’re rich in kindness, you can donate or offer your time to The Prince’s Trust, a youth charity in the UK that, according to their site, helps 60,000 young people ages 11-30 battle mental health issues and navigate the criminal justice system. If you donate time or money, you’ll be entered in for a chance to win two tickets to upcoming shows in Manchester at Etihad Stadium and in London at London Stadium.
“Beyoncé has supported The Prince’s Trust for many years and understands the importance of giving young people who have faced setbacks in life the chance of a brighter future,” said Nick Stace, UK chief executive of The Prince’s Trust. “We aim to empower them with the confidence and skills they need to take control of their lives and realize their ambitions so that they can live, learn and earn.”
“On The Run II” kicks off tomorrow, June 6, in Cardiff, Wales, and ends July 17 in Nice, France. For more information on how to win tickets, log onto BeyGOOD initiative website, The Prince’s Trust website or the Global Citizen website.
