Rihanna may have a reputation for being a “bad gal” but her heart is pure.
Miss Fenty helped to raise over $2.3 billion for global education as ambassador for the Global Partnership for Education.
Rihanna spoke at the first ever GPE Financing Conference in Dakar, Senegal. She thanked donors and vowed to not stop fighting for access to education for all.
Not only a platinum selling artist, perfume, apparel, and make up mogul, the Bajan superstar is no stranger to philanthropy.
This continues RiRi’s charitable work around the globe. In 2016, she was named a global ambassador for education by GPE. In February of last year, she earned Harvard’s Humanitarian of the Year Award for her work through her Clara Lionel Foundation and for constantly promoting education in various parts of the world, including Malawi.
