The Weeknd pledges $2 million for humanitarian aid in Gaza

 

 

This fund will be allocated from his XO Humanitarian Fund. It will provide 18 million loaves of bread to help families in Gaza.

 

 

 

 

In December, 2023, United Nations World Food Programme announced that WFP Goodwill Ambassador, singer and songwriter, The Weeknd has directed $2.5 million from his XO Humanitarian Fund to aid the WFP’s humanitarian response in Gaza.

 

 

 

The Weekend’s donation which was equal to four million emergency meals funded the delivery of 820 metric tons of food parcels that could feed more than 173,000 Palestinians for two weeks.
