Shawn Mendes has donated $175,000 to Toronto’s Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids hospital) to provide them with emergency medical resources to help fight coronavirus.
The If I Can’t Have You singer made the contribution with The Shawn Mendes Foundation, which he launched last August to support causes important to the singer and his fans. “The @shawnfoundation & I have been working to find ways to best support COVID-19 relief efforts, and to direct our resources to where we can make a difference,” Mendes’ Instagram post read.
The post continued: “We’ve made a donation to @sickkidssvs hospital this week to help support the urgent screening and prevention of COVID-19 in my hometown of Toronto.
