Metro Boomin Continues ‘Leslie Joanne Single Moms Are Superheroes' Grant ProgramLast night, GRAMMY®-nominated, diamond-certified producer and global superstar Metro Boomin descended on Atlanta for the 6th stop of his highly anticipated ‘We Trust You’ tour with Future at the State Farm Center. Metro and Future performed a collection of their top hits, including “Like That” and “Type Shit” from their #1 Billboard 200 album We Don't Trust You, which holds the #1 spot on the Apple Music charts in over 80 countries and was also the most streamed album in a single day of 2024.
Also, making its 6th tour stop was Metro Boomin's Leslie Joanne Single Moms Are Superheroes grant-giving tour program, a national, multi-city initiative providing $20,000 in grants and show tickets to selected single mother non-profit organizations in each market of the ‘We Trust You’ tour.
The first recipient of the night was the Atlanta Mission, an Atlanta-based organization and registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to transforming the lives of those experiencing homelessness through customized services offering a path forward amidst challenging circumstances. Followed by the second grant recipient Solomon’s Temple, a holistic emergency and transitional shelter for homeless women and their children, driven by a mission to treat the root causes of homelessness in Atlanta.
Both organizations were gifted $20K from Metro to help further the work for their important causes as he takes the 'Leslie Joanne Single Moms Are Superheroes' tour grant program to all 21 markets of his national, multi-city 'We Trust You' tour. Metro officially launched the grant program at the first tour stops in Kansas City and St. Paul. Metro initially launched his ‘Single Moms Are Superheroes’ initiative in 2017, hosting annual give-back activations. In December of 2023, he partnered with St. Louis-based non-profit organization RUNG for Women and presenting sponsor Amazon Access to launch his grant-giving program in honor of his late mother, Leslie Joanne.The post Metro Boomin Continues ‘Leslie Joanne Single Moms Are Superheroes' Grant Program first appeared on Music Connection Magazine.
