Megan Thee Stallion has announced ‘Women On Top’, a new $1 million (£723,000) fund to support women in education, business, charity and more.
The Houston rapper confirmed details of the fund, which is being done in partnership with Fashion Nova, yesterday (March 8) to mark International Women’s Day.
Grants, donations and scholarships will be awarded from the $1 million fund throughout March, with the YWCA Houston receiving the first $25,000 (£18,000) grant.
“I’m excited to collaborate with Fashion Nova Cares on the ‘Women On Top’ initiative and be part of giving $1 million to support women-led businesses and organisations,” Megan said about the fund in an official statement.
“These donations are life-changing and will help women of all ages get one step closer to making their dreams a reality.”
