Macklemore donates one million dollars from tour to Palestinian aid organizations

Rapper Macklemore has announced he will give away $1 million to help Palestinians. The money came from his work as a supporting artist on Ed Sheeran's Loop Tour. He said he will share the funds between six different organisations that support Palestinian people. Macklemore made a public statement about his decision. This is not the first time he has spoken out about political causes. He has used his platform before to support social issues he believes in. The donation is one of the largest that a touring musician has made directly from concert earnings to a humanitarian cause.
