Celebrating Black History Month With New Beats4Love Orgs

Every February, the U.S. honors Black Americans' contributions, triumphs, and sacrifices throughout history. In observance of this year's Black History Month, BeatStars is bringing attention to organizations advocating for Black creators and a more equitable music industry overall by adding three new organizations to the Beats4Love roster.

“We are delighted to introduce three new organizations to the Beats4Love roster that are truly advocating for Black creators and a more equitable music industry overall. We fully support the mission and vision of these nonprofits, and hope you'll join us in making the world a better place for Black artists and musicians.”

Abe Batshon, BeatStars CEO

What is Beats4Love?

Beats4Love is a philanthropic campaign developed by BeatStars. Our mission is to inspire our community to contribute to charities and nonprofits that are in the fight to make the world a better place. BeatStars donates 100% of the proceeds collected to the charities and nonprofits on behalf of our creators and has committed to matching those donations. Organizations are vetted and chosen to ensure they are making real change with the donations they receive.
