Justin Bieber may be young, but the singer already knows how important it is to give back. Last week, he joined his mentor Usher for the New Look Foundation's World Leadership Awards, and on Wednesday, the singer donated $1.06 of each ticket from his sold-out concert at Nashville, Tennessee's Bridgestone Arena to Nashville-area flood-recovery efforts. The pop star presented a $32,690 check to the nonprofit organization Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee.
The teen heartthrob took to Twitter to thank partnering radio station i106 Hits for helping out for the greater good. "shoutout to i106 ( www.i106hits.com ) for teaming up with me for a great cause today.... we gave $1.06 per ticket sold 2nite to Flood Relief needed here in Tennessee. thanks 2 all of u 2nite we raised $32,690 for those in need!!!" he tweeted.
Bieber also took part in helping out because of Nashville's role in music history. "I'm really glad to be here and to help out something that's really important to me. Music has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and you know Nashville, there's so much music history here," he said, according to Tennessean.com.
