Black Lives Matter has been fighting for freedom, liberation and justice since 2013. And with the unnecessary deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and more, the nation has been sharing new knowledge about injustices, protests to spread the word and celebs with big pockets donating generously to that cause to help support their mission.
One of the many artists to make a donation is BTS, who donated $1,000,000 to Black Lives Matter along with the following tweet below to show their support:
Beautiful words and a beautiful gesture that did not go unnoticed by the BTS Army!
A BTS fan-based charity fundraising group called "One In An ARMY" launched a campaign to raise money for Black Lives Matter, like the group, using the hashtag #MatchAMillion !
Sounds impossible right?
Think about it, let's say the group has at least a million fans (we all know it's waaaaay more than that) and they all donate $1? There's your goal!
Either way, NEVER under-estimate the #BTSArmy ! They didn't just reach their goal, they infact crushed it raising $1 million dollars in just over 24 hours!!
Kailee Scales, the managing director for BLM, said: [of BTS and their #MatchAMillion donations>
Pretty freakin amazing!
We won't get there overnight, but working together we will get there!
