BritneyJeanAmaze Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 For the past week ive seen numerous new stations in Louisiana posting about this and it has been getting great response from everyone in Louisiana!!! WAFB) - Pop star Britney Spears is donating some of her Las Vegas show ticket sales to Louisiana schools for flood recovery. The Kentwood, Louisiana native announced that $1 of every ticket sold through the end of the year will go to public schools in a partnership with the Louisiana School Boards Association. The Advocate reports that association executive director Scott Richard says Spears' contribution will go to a fund formed after last summer's floods damaged several schools. The initial money will focus on helping schools and teachers buy instructional materials. Richard credited Louisiana first lady Donna Edwards with helping with the donation. Spears' mother Lynne and Edwards are friends. Both came from the same parish and previously were schoolteachers there. During the August 2016 floods, Britney Spears offered the chance to meet her at the MTV Video Music Awards or win the outfit she wore during her performance as part of an effort to raise money for flood victims. She also donated $125,000 with Ellen Degeneres. Copyright 2017 WAFB,The Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material Link to comment
