Causes that were near to Prince's heart/that he supported?

Hi Fam! wave

Super important! Can you tell me some special causes that were near and dear to Prince's heart mushy or those that he supported? I know I've read that about food collections or to support a shelter in MPLS/MN, I am sure there are others, I'm just not privvy to that info so thought I would ask you all.

If you were planning Prince related possible FAM events or ATTENDING such events, what would U like to see as a fundraiser.

Inquiring minds need to know cool

Thanks in advance - got to get back to work. razz pout

Sure absolutely don't mind!!

Hoping some other fams chime in with some recommendations, or will just select a MPLS/MN (possibly Chanhassen area) Shelter/Food bank smile

Autismrocks was a charity he did support gigs for. That one is p obvious what it supports. Honestly so so so SO glad Prince didn't support Autism Speaks.

Yeswecode I think too, that one supports getting young men and women from disadvantaged backgrounds into tech.

The groups mentioned are good ones. Also, i believe he was a big Animal rights advocate.
