As of now, we’re officially one week away from the launch of Beyonce’s forthcoming stadium tour. Announcing the “Formation World Tour” merely moments after her Super Bowl performance, the upcoming event quickly rose to the top of the list of many people and became a must-attend concert for Spring and Summer seasons. With the glitz, glamour, and immense talent from Beyonce being set to be on full display, the superstar isn’t forgetting other important aspects and has officially partnered with three charities to make their presence and missions known across various dates of the tour.
United Way will have a presence on every tour stop, starting on the North American leg of the tour which kicks off on Wednesday, April 27 at Marlins Park in Miami, Florida. CHIME FOR CHANGE and Global Citizen will have their online activation program for fans in select tour markets, including Houston, Los Angeles, New York, Detroit and London. In addition, there are three signature charity events in three cities; Houston, TX, Compton, CA and Detroit, Michigan.
There are three simple ways fans can participate in helping others along The Formation World Tour: online, in-community and on-site.
(1) Online – CrowdRise is in partnership with United Way to support the Flint Water Crisis where fans can make a small donation and qualify for an opportunity to win VIP tickets.
(2) In Community – United Way to support issues specific to each local tour market.
(3) On-site – by signing up to become a Global Citizen, along with CHIME FOR CHANGE, fans will have a chance to win tickets and upgrades at select tour dates.
Very commendable, indeed, it’s always great to see artists doing their best to give back in any way they can. With an artist of Beyonce’s stature, the partnering charities will definitely benefit greatly from this opportunity from fans of the ‘Formation’ singer.
