Living up to her promise to help Flint as its residents deal with the city’s lead-tainted water supply, Beyonc├â┬⌐ has presented the United Way of Genesee County with a check for $82,234. Boom!
Funds were raised by members of the Beyhive who chose to contribute to the cause while purchasing tickets to see the Halo singer perform live. Worth it!

This news comes just ahead of her Formation World Tour concert at Ford Field on Tuesday. Detroit is one of three cities on the tour featuring a “signature charity event” component.
In addition to the impressive fundraising effort, 14 Detroit-area high school students were selected to receive tickets to the show and “college gifts” to assist with their educational expenses.
Good job, B!
