Shawn Mendes Teams Up With Red Cross For Mexico Earthquake Relief Campaign

Singer-songwriter Shawn Mendes has announced that he’s teaming up with the Red Cross for Mexico earthquake relief campaign. Mendes was in Mexico City during the earthquake while on tour. After witnessing the destruction firsthand, he decided to get involved. This what he said:

After seeing the impact of the damage firsthand in Mexico, I wanted to find any way I could to raise funds. So we reached out to the Red Cross and partnered with them to set up a way to help those affected by the earthquake.

Mendes and Red Cross’ campaign will raise funds on CrowdRise, a crowdsourcing site that’s part of GoFundMe. Mendes and his agency AG Artists already donated $100,000, and are counting on fans to help out further. You can attribute your own donation here.
