Beyoncé is joining in on the mission provide funds to the COVID-19 relief.
Queen Bee’s charity BeyGOOD and Twitter’s CEO Jack Dorsey have pledge to donate $6 million to aid organizations that provide mental wellness services. A statement from Beyoncé’s representative reads, “In our major cities, African-Americans comprise a disproportionate number of workers in these indispensable occupations, and they will need mental health support and personal wellness care, including testing and medical services, food supplies and food deliveries, both during and after the crisis.”
