The Weeknd Donates 2 Million Dollars For Food Supply To Gaza

JAKARTA - Top musician, The Weeknd is one of the artists who has reached out to help victims of the persecution in Gaza. The owner of Abel Tesfaye's name has reportedly just donated USD 2 million, or approximately 32 billion.

This is not the first time the 'Starboy' singer has taken concrete action for humanity. In December 2023, he also sent 2.5 million dollars in cash assistance through his Mill XO program.

The donation will be used to address the problem of hunger in Gaza. As is known, the people there are experiencing food difficulties due to Israel's attitude in repelling humanitarian aid in Palestine.

The Weeknd hopes that their actions will also be followed by fans and other citizens of the world. He invited them to donate through his platform to be distributed to areas where the dispute was being disputed.

Assistance from The Weeknd was welcomed positively by the United Nations World Food Program (WFP). The donations collected will be distributed into foodstuffs, such as flour as bread-making material. It is estimated that 157 thousand residents in Gaza will be helped by this noble action.
