Surprisingly, word of Prince’s great generosity didn’t begin to surface until after his death. As it turns out, Prince was an incredibly generous man that used his own success to help numerous different causes. Civil Rights Leader Rev Al Sharpton took to Twitter to shed some light on Prince’s deeds throughout his life. He talked about how Prince quietly gave money to the grieving family of Trayvon Martin, donated $250,000 to solar power startups as well as struggling families in South Carolina. However, one of his biggest donations was $1 million to a nonprofit in Harlem for inner-city kids living in poverty and poor conditions.

You’ll never imagine how much Dr. Dre has done to try and help the city of Compton.
