Considering all the backlash he’s received from Astroworld and recent backlash from getting back on stage, Travis Scott is in a giving mood.
HYPEBEAST reports the rapper is set to donate the proceeds from his latest Nike Air Trainer 1 and Air Max 1 release.
The project where the said proceeds are going is Scott’s Project HEAL initiative. Months after the Astroworld tragedy, the artist launched new philanthropy called “Project HEAL.” The four initiatives include the Waymon Webster HBCU Scholarship Fund, Expansions of CACT.US Youth Design Center, Mental Health Resources, and Stakeholder and Tech-Driven Solutions for Safety.
According to the site, Project Heal is “a multi-tier initiative dedicated to addressing challenges facing today’s youth, especially those from marginalized and at-risk communities.”
“In conjunction with the Cactus Jack Foundation, Project HEAL unites initiatives ranging from academic scholarships, free mental health resources, a creative design center, and a first-ever, tech-driven solution for event safety. These efforts, independently and collectively, aim to solve challenges and overcome issues impacting the youth community.”
Though no exact number has been recorded, reports indicate as much as millions could be donated to the fund.
The Travis Scott x Nike Air Trainer 1 and Air Max 1 will be released on Friday, May 27.
