Alicia Keys Donates $60K To Performing Arts School In Collaboration With Roc Nation

In a heartening display of generosity and solidarity, singer-songwriter Alicia Keys and Roc Nation have joined forces to support a seventh grader’s mission to rescue the performing arts program at her school. The Professional Performing Arts School in New York City faced the prospect of losing its cherished arts program due to budget cuts. However, thanks to the collective efforts of Keys, Roc Nation, and a passionate young advocate, the future of the program looks brighter than ever. TMZ reported on Monday, March 18, that Alicia Keys, in collaboration with Roc Nation, made a significant contribution of $60,000 to the Professional Performing Arts School. This generous donation comes at a crucial time, as the school’s arts program teetered on the brink of closure. The initiative was spearheaded by 12-year-old Tennyson Artigliere, whose determination to save the program resonated deeply with Keys, who herself is an alumna of the school.

The outpouring of support for Artigliere’s cause has been nothing short of remarkable. With the backing of Keys, Roc Nation, and other notable figures, including actor Jeremy Allen White, who is also a graduate of the school, Artigliere’s GoFundMe campaign has surpassed its initial goal of $102,000. At present, the campaign has received over $56,000 in donations and continues to gather momentum. Moreover, in a testament to their unwavering commitment to the cause, Alicia Keys and Roc Nation have pledged ongoing support, promising to raise funds for the program annually until the city is able to provide sustainable funding.
