Megan Thee Stallion has announced the ‘Donât Stop Scholarship Fund’, a bursary awarded to two female students of colour pursuing degrees in any field.
For the second year running, Megan has partnered with Rap Rotation, Amazon Musicâs flagship global hip-hop brand, to award two $10,000 (ÂŁ7,820) funds to a pair of students wanting to attain an associate, bachelors or postgraduate degree.
The ‘Don’t Stop’ title of the fund is taken from Megan’s latest single of the same name, featuring Young Thug. Applicants can find out more information about the scholarship here.
Megan is currently a Health Care Administration major studying at Texas Southern University. As a press release notes, the rapper is “incredibly passionate about the transformative power of education and remains a strong advocate for women pursuing a college degree”.
In other news, Megan delivered a politically charged Saturday Night Live performance of ‘Donât Stop’ and ‘Savage’ over the weekend. During her debut appearance on the US show, she called for justice for Breonna Taylor.
Appearing on Fox & Friends, Cameron said he agreed with Meganâs call to âprotect Black womenâ but said: âThe fact that someone would get on national television and make disparaging comments about me because Iâm simply trying to do my job is disgusting.”
