Such an effective sense of mission for his #philanthropy and finding partners to leverage that support. #Stormzy giving £500m to #BlackHeart Foundation’s 1-1 match campaign will get that funding directly to under-resourced young people. #poweriscommunity

Nottingham East MP Nadia Whittome donates part of salary to St Ann’s charity. Stunning move from @NadiaWhittomeMP to take only portion of her MP's salary and donate the rest. Also fascinating for #philanthropy choices trusting with unrestricted funding.
