Non-profit raffle. Buy a ticket for 100 euros for a chance to win a Picasso valued at 1 million euros. All proceeds go to Fondation Recherche Alzheimer, the leading organisation in France dedicated to research on Alzheimer's disease.
This is pretty incredible. There are 120,000 tickets, so chances you win aren’t super high, but that means the Opera Gallery gets its million for the painting and then 11 million goes to Alzheimer’s research. Hard to think of a better way to donate than this.
Letters Charity is a nonprofit organization on a mission to use Art as a conduit to transform passive compassion into immediate assistance through the distribution of money given, without expectation or judgment, directly to families experiencing poverty.
Holy moly! A second charity album and this one from Fugazi featuring recordings they did in Chicago at Electrical Audio Studio with Steve Albini back in ’92.
In addition to the stellar cast of musicians involved, renowned filmmaker and Academy Award Winner Jonathan Glazer acted as Creative Director for ‘HELP(2)’, working with Academy Films to assemble a team of brilliant creatives and overseeing the filming and art direction for the project.
If there’s one album you pick up today on Bandcamp Friday, it should probably be this one. Following in the footsteps of the ’95 Brian Eno- produced HELP, proceeds from HELP(2) go to to benefit humanitarian efforts to aid, protect, and educate children in Gaza, Sudan, Yemen, and Ukraine.
