Morgan Wallen’s nonprofit organization, the Morgan Wallen Foundation (MWF), will donate $500,000 in instruments to needy schools in 14 cities since his One Night at a Time World Tour..

Wallen donated three dollars from every U.S. ticket sold for his 87 shows on tour to MWF to support their “One Instrument at a Time” initiative, for a total of $500,000. The initiative partnered with the Opus Foundation (MHOF), a non-profit organization dedicated to providing students with access to learning and playing music at school using donated high-quality musical instruments.

Cities selected to receive donated instruments include: Arlington, Texas; Charlotte, North Carolina; Denver, Colorado; East Rutherford, New Jersey; Hershey, Pennsylvania; Indianapolis, Indiana; Kansas City, Missouri; Las Vegas, Nevada; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Nashville, Tennessee; Oxford, spinster; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Tampa, Florida and Virginia Beach, Virginia.

“When I was a child, access to music profoundly changed my life and gave me a sense of purpose. I want this for others and I am blessed that through my foundation I can provide instruments to these schools,” Wallen says. “We really wanted to say a big thank you to these incredible communities that welcome us and allow us to play for our fans.”

In September, MWF also donated $500,000 to the American Red Cross to help those affected by Hurricane Helene, and $140,000 to Gibbs Youth Sports coincides with Wallen’s record-breaking doubleheader at the University of Tennessee’s Neyland Stadium in Knoxville.
