Canadian singer, songwriter, and record producer The Weeknd has joined American rapper French Montana to donate generously to Uganda.
According to E! News, The Weeknd has donated $100,000 to the Suubi Health Center, a maternity and children’s medical facility in Iganga, Uganda.
The Weeknd was inspired to support the center after learning of French Montana’s work with Global Citizen and Mama Hope to help raise awareness for Suubi and the people of Uganda.
Montana also donated $100,000 to Suubi and launched an online campaign called #Unforgettable that has helped fund a blood bank, premature incubators, cribs and other maternity supplies.
This website understands that The Weeknd’s donation has enabled Suubi to complete construction of the first floor of the maternity clinic and increase its capacity of serving 56,000 people to 260,000 people.
