Mars told the crowd that he and the show’s promoter, Live Nation, would be donating the concert’s proceeds to support Flint, the Los Angeles Times reports.
“I’m very thankful to the Michigan audience for joining me in supporting this cause. Ongoing challenges remain years later for Flint residents, and it’s important that we don’t forget our brothers and sisters affected by this disaster. As people, especially as Americans, we need to stand together to make sure something like this never happens in any community ever again.”
Mars’ donation will go to the Community Foundation of Greater Flint, a public charity for the city.
