Fall Out Boy are using their Fall Out Boy Fund to donate to the gun safety organization, Everytown.
The band is donating $100 thousand to the organization after the July 4 shooting in their hometown of Chicago.
“Chicago is where we grew up, and we are heartbroken for the families and entire community of Highland Park, as well as every single victim of wanton gun violence in America,” the band shared in a statement.
In the past, the Fall Out Boy Fund has donated to National Bail Out, Black Visions Collective, and the animal shelter One Tail at a Time.
What other organizations should Fall Out Boy donate to? Do more bands need to step up and do similar donations?
