How Sabrina Carpenter Raised $1 Million for Charity

The Sabrina Carpenter Fund is the fastest-growing artist initiative from the new nonprofit PLUS1

The Carpenter Fund supports grassroots and community-based organizations including UK-based PAPYRUS, which operates a 24/7 mental health crisis hotline, and Rainbow Railroad, which assists LGBTQ+ individuals facing persecution globally. The singer has also experimented with creative fundraising approaches like a “cuddle lounge” at her Salt Lake City concert that featured adoptable animals, and a partnership with jewelry brand Catbird on text-to-donate campaigns at venues. PLUS1 founder Marika Anthony-Shaw spent nine years as a viola player with Arcade Fire, while leading the band’s philanthropy and community outreach efforts.
