Mac Miller continues to contribute to the community with the help of his fund-raising charity.

According to TMZ, during the October 31 tribute to Miller with Chance The Rapper, SZA, John Mayer, Anderson .Paak and the others at the L.A.’s Greek Theatre, the artist’s charity, The Mac Miller Circles Fund, raised about $350,000 USD. With $700,000 USD in total after adding another $350,000 USD from the donations of the rapper’s fans, the money will be used to aid the youth in his hometown, Pittsburgh, “to help them recognize their full potential through exploration in the arts and community building.”

The artist died in September last year from an accidental overdose. Miller’s manager, Christian Clancy wrote an op-ed dedicated to the rapper, paying homage to his enthusiasm and devotion to the production of his final studio album Swimming.

Recently, Ariana Grande quickly removed Mac Miller tribute on Instagram.
