U2 are set to donate a massive €2 million from the profits they make through their Irish concert dates.
After announcing the dates for the Irish leg of their iNNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE tour, it seems the band want to give back by donating a massive €2,000,000 to Music Generation, Ireland’s national music education programme.
Rosaleen Molloy, Director of MG, said: “Music Generation would not exist without U2’s vision. It was the band’s very own personal experience of music education as children and teenagers that has driven their commitment to kick-start this ground breaking project.”
