Drake and Donating



The budget for Drake’s video for God’s Plan was $996,631.90 according to the video intro.  If you watch the video, it looks like a large portion of the budget was given away as gifts.  Drake may have been generous, but he was not as generous as these benefactors in 2017:

  • Bill and Melinda Gates: $4.6 billion (Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation)
  • Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan: $1.9 billion (Chan Zuckerberg Foundation)
  • Michael and Susan Dell: $1 billion (Michael and Susan Dell Foundation)

Celebrities also made notable donations in 2017:

  • Chance the Rapper: $2 million (Chicago Public Schools)
  • Ariana Grande: $13 million (One Love Manchester)
  • Rihanna: $5 million (Diamond Ball)
