Author : Alicia Parker

Many popular American rappers have been rocking the musical atmosphere of the world and Doja Cat is no exception. The California-born American singer has been thoroughly entertaining music admirers since 2014. The singer is a holder of five Billboard Music Awards, three MTV Video Music Awards, and one Grammy Award. Recently, the singer has decided to take a break from music. Well, Doja Cat is one of the if not the most decorated artists in the global musical space. However, she is also quite famous for her charity works. Today, let’s have a look at her contributions and works for charity.

• Doja Cat’s Donation For Breonna Taylor – Back in March 2020, the shocking death of Breonna Taylor shook the world entirely. On March 13, the African American was fatally shot at her Kentucky apartment when seven police officers forcibly entered the apartment for an investigation of drug dealing. Later that year, on June 5, Singer Doja Cat revealed on Instagram that she has donated $100,000 to the justice fund for Breonna Taylor. She posted a photo of Breonna on her Instagram handle and captioned it “I am donating $100,000 to Justice For Breonna Taylor Fund #BIRTHDAYFORBREONNA and I am inviting you all to honor and celebrate her with me by donating whatever you can and signing her petition – the link is in my bio,” Doja wrote on Instagram along with a photo of Taylor. “I’m urging all my friends, family, fans, and colleagues to please donate whatever you can to her cause and to ALL the foundations that are helping us bring justice and demand change! We are all in this together and together is the ONLY way to demand change for a better world.”
• Partnership With Girls Who Code – In December 2021, Doja Cat announced her collaboration with the non-profit organization Girls Who Code and Mojo Supermarket to develop an interactive music video experience. The collaboration project was planned for her song ‘Woman’ from her album ‘Planet Her.’ The experience helped children from the organization interact with the song rather than passively listen to it. It also included three popular coding languages such as Python, CSS, and JavaScript. Doja Cat stated about the partnership, “I am so excited that Girls Who Code has partnered with me to make my “Woman” music video the world’s first codable music video,” said Doja Cat in a statement. “Fans all over the world will get to input code via a microsite and unlock some really cool special features. It’s going to be awesome.” Girls Who Code CEO Tarika Barrett said in a statement, “At Girls Who Code, we know firsthand that girls and young women are some of today’s most powerful creators and change-makers. However, too few know that they can have a career in computer science and that it can open up an entire future of possibility to nurturing their passions. Learning to code enables you to change the world around you, and we’re thrilled to partner with global superstar Doja Cat, beloved by young people everywhere, as we invite girls to experience ‘Planet Her’, a place where they get to be in control.”

• Charitable Collaboration With Poshmark – In February 2022 resale marketplace Poshmark announced their collaboration with Doja Cat and revealed a collection of goods that replicated the singer’s style. The idea of providing 13 unique and personal items used by the singer was a huge hit. All the pieces were sold out within an hour. Talking about the revenue, the entirety of it went to the Musicians On Call nonprofit. The charity was based on working to come with live and recorded music to all the music lovers in the healthcare facilities. This strategy by Doja Cat went viral and received a lot of praise and attention, as it was a direct involvement from her side to help out the charity.
• Collaboration With House Party Video Game – On March 4th, 2022 it was announced that American singer Doja Cat will become a character in the House Party Video game. The video game company decided to donate a portion of it to the South African non-profit organization ACFS. The decision behind this came from the singer, as she chose ACFC as the beneficiary of the House Party. Established in 1945, ACFS is an organization, which focuses on the protection and development of children and their families by improving and equipping them with access to a healthy lifestyle, nutrition, skills development, and education. Doja Cat also gave the voice-over for her character in the game. Eek Games!, the developer of the game House Party announced “In the DLC, players will “navigate through an unpredictable night filled with outrageous party goers as they help Doja carry out a master plan to track down a masked dancing sensation who is taking the online world by storm.”
