Do you want to help Lady Gaga give away $1 million dollars to charity? Well, little monsters, here's your chance! Mother Monster is hooking up with the Robin Hood Foundation to help homeless youth in New York, her hometown.
Fans can go to Gaga's Facebook page to weigh in on which organization — The Door, Hetrick-Martin Institute, Lawyers for Children, Safe Horizon or SCO Family of Services — will be gifted the sum ($500,000 a year over two years).
The results will be announced May 9 at a special concert benefiting Robin Hood. 'I'm thrilled to be working with the Robin Hood Foundation to distribute funds to help the youth of New York City,' Gaga said in a statement. 'NYC is my hometown and I think investing in these kids' future will go a long way.'
Days before Gaga attends the Robin Hood gala, her HBO special will air. While it is a concert special, it also serves as a love letter to the Big Apple. Shot during her time in New York for two tour stops at Madison Square Garden earlier this year, the documentary shows the singer opening up about her love for the city and how it helped shape her as an artist.
'There was never a question in my mind that I was gonna make it and that this is my destiny and that we were all gonna make it as the kids of this city, as the New York generation,' she says, driving through the streets of New York to MSG. 'My faith in my creativity and my artistry has nothing to do with making it,' she continued. 'We kind of had already made it when we were playing for nothing downtown. ... We still felt like we were superstars.'
Which organization do you hope Gaga's money goes to? Sound off below!
