Quavo Launches Anti-Gun Violence Initiative in Atlanta in Honor of Takeoff

Quavo launched the Sparks Grants Initiative in memory of  Takeoff to combat gun violence in Atlanta.

According to Billboard, the initiative will award ten organizations $10,000 grants each to support their efforts in gun violence prevention and regulation.

“I am honored to launch this grant program to honor Take and the countless families that have been affected by gun violence,” Quavo said in a statement. “The Rocket Foundation will be giving out $100,000 in Spark grants to local organizations dedicated to reducing community violence in Atlanta.”

He said, “There is a lot of important work going on in ATL right now, and part of our mission is to uplift these organizations and support them to help save more lives.”

Organizations can still apply for the grants up until the deadline on April 21.
