Longtime Adam Lambert fans already know of his longtime commitment to DonorsChoose.org, but those less familiar may need a bit of a refresher. The organization is meant to provide ordinary people with easy access to classroom projects around the country, and provide them with the means to support education in as many forms possible.
Now, the "American Idol" singer is giving fans on his Glam Nation tour yet another opportunity with his "Glam a Classroom" project to support his charity of choice. Fans can text "Lambert" to 30644 to receive more information about how to donate and help impact the lives of kids around the country.
In a statement, Adam had this to say about his goals for the initiative:
“I can’t thank my fans enough for getting involved with the Glam A Classroom campaign to provide much needed resources for public schools. I wouldn’t be where I am today without the support of amazing music and theater teachers, so I want to help foster the next Ansel Adams or American Idol.”
DonorsChoose.org CEO and founder Charles Best went on to sing the praises of Adam for doing so much for the charity:
“Adam has outdone himself again! By championing classrooms in need last fall and again on his Glam Nation tour, Adam continues to use his star power for social change. So many students have a tremendous disadvantage simply because they don’t have the learning materials they need. Luckily, people like Adam are encouraging everyday citizens to step in to help.”
