The Darkside Initiative, an SF-based fashion boutique, conducted a donation raffle in celebration of the official release of the Travis Scott x fragment x Air Jordan 1 High, and the money raised is quite surprising.

The company announced the results that the charity raffle raised a total of $274,527  USD — with all proceeds going to Scott’s Cactus Jack Foundation. Each participant was required to donate $3 USD per entry, where they could purchase as many raffle tickets as they wanted. A total tally of 91,509 tickets was sold throughout the fund-raising raffle to achieve the final sum.

Founded by the rapper last year, the Cactus Jack Foundation aims to better the lives of the youth with access to education and creative resources.
