A fundraising auction from The ASCAP Foundation opened online with more than 50 items and experiences to support programs for emerging songwriters and composers — including a high-profile contribution from Cardi B.
Cardi B is featured among the most visible participants in the 5th Annual ASCAP Foundation Holiday Auction, joining contributors such as Chappell Roan, Rosé, Hayley Williams, Tate McRae, Olivia Rodrigo, Kali Uchis, Selena Gomez and Kim Petras.
Other participants include Kehlani, Gracie Abrams, Noah Kahan, Laufey, Brandy Clark, Lionel Richie, Alicia Keys, Ms. Lauryn Hill, Coldplay, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and Paul Williams.
Items include meet-and-greet tickets with Ne-Yo in the Broadway production Hell’s Kitchen, VIP access to shows by The Chainsmokers, Steve Aoki, and Martin Garrix, and tickets to Meghan Trainor and the Brooklyn Nets. Signed instruments, vinyl, handwritten lyrics, videos, and event packages are listed as well.
Composers Stephen Schwartz and John Powell also contributed items.
“We are always inspired by, and deeply grateful for, the extraordinary generosity of the ASCAP members and friends of the ASCAP Foundation whose incredible contributions help us raise the critical funds needed to support the next generation of music creators,” Executive Director Nicole George-Middleton said.
Bidding runs through Dec. 17 on Charitybuzz.
