Justin Bieber Donates $100K + Private Concert to Elementary School in Vegas


Justin Bieber Donates $100K + Private Concert to Elementary School in Vegas

DECEMBER 16, 2011
Justin Bieber is a man of his word. Justin is fulfilling a promise he made on “The Ellen Degeneres Show” in November. The Biebs matched a donation pledged by Target that benefits Las Vegas’ Whitney Elementary School and its 600-plus students, most of which come from low-income families.
On the Ellen Degeneres Show back in November, Justin declared he would match a $100,000 commitment to aid impoverished Whitney Elementary School in Las Vegas. You can watch the interview here!
And on Dec. 16, Justin personally delivering a check for $100,000 and performing a mini-private concert (set to kick off at 2 p.m. PST) for students at the school, the vast majority hailing from low income families.
According to the Hollywoodreporter, the money, which comes from Bieber’s personal funds and not his organization Believe, will go towards providing needy students’ families with food, clothes and money for utility bills. Whitney Elementary also provides assistance to its 610 students, many of them homeless, by providing a food pantry, clothes closet, free haircuts and literacy training on campus.
