Since the Covid-19 crisis first swept the globe, music has become one of the primary sources of joy and community for millions of people dealing with the strains and stresses of social isolation. Whether watching historic Verzuz battles, participating in the “justice for” streaming campaigns, or simply enjoying the pleasures of your favourite artists, one thing can be counted on in this uncertain world: the song remains the same.

Inspired by the outpouring of support for an earlier photography fundraiser that secured $4,000 in just four days, curator Julie Grahame and photographer Janette Beckman have teamed up to launch the God’s Love We Deliver Fundraiser: Music Edition on Tuesday, May 26.

The fundraiser features nearly 50 photographs of iconic artists including Madonna, Prince, Debbie Harry, David Bowie, and Bob Marley alongside stars like Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, and Kendrick Lamar for just $150 each, available on a “first come, first served” basis. 100 per cent of the proceeds will be donated to God’s Love We Deliver to feed 5,000 severe and chronically ill New Yorkers during the ongoing Covid-19 emergency.
