Today, the Michael Jackson Estate disclosed it is donating $300,000 to coronavirus response efforts to help three communities severely affected by the Covid 19 virus. Broadway Cares, Three Square Food Bank (the largest hunger-relief organization in Southern Nevada), and MusicCares will each receive a donation of $100,000, according to Variety.

“This virus strikes at the heart of the communities we are close to,” said John Branca and John McClain, co-executors of the Estate of Michael Jackson. “We learned today that the legendary Manu Dibango [a key influence on Jackson’s hit ‘Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’) passed away from the virus.  Other performers and support staff in music and on Broadway are sick or have been left without work and are facing an uncertain future. And in Las Vegas, which has been so welcoming to Michael Jackson, the entire city has been shut down leaving thousands of workers and their families devastated and without an income.

“Michael’s spirit of generosity and helping others during his lifetime is legendary. These donations are inspired by him,” they concluded.
