Kenny Chesney recently wrapped up his Sun Goes Down Tour in Foxborough, Massachusetts. And the “No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem” singer left his mark in more ways than one. Several nonprofits and public agencies are benefitting from his generosity.
Kenny Chesney Gives Back
Kenny Chesney wrapped up his summer tour Aug. 23-25 with three shows at Gillette Stadium. Before he ever took the stage, however, the GRAMMY nominee had contributed more than $1 million to various causes across the state, according to MassLive.
According to public records, Chesney donated $100,000 each to the police and fire departments. He also contributed to the Animal Rescue League of Boston, the Worcester Animal Rescue League, the Boston Medical Center, and Music & Youth, a nonprofit that creates “accessible, sustainable, high-quality music programs so every young person can experience the magic of music,” according to its website.
The “You Had Me From Hello” singer didn’t broadcast his philanthropy, preferring to “quietly give back,” a spokesperson said.
