Ariana Grande has launched a new charity foundation to support a cause that's close to the musician's heart.
Grande has officially launched The Brighter Days Ahead Foundation. According to Variety , the foundation has four different funds that partner with existing organizations, including Lambda Legal, Trans Lifeline and Humanity Crew, among many others.
"I am beyond excited to finally announce the Brighter Days Ahead Foundation," Grande said in a press statement. "Our mission is to support, protect, and provide resources for our vulnerable friends in need."
She also said that the foundation will be "supporting handfuls of incredible organizations that provide the safe space and care that is desperately needed by so many right now." Grande's charity will mainly focus on the mental health of youths, arts education and community betterment issues.

Variety adds that the name of the Foundation is, not surprisingly, inspired by the musician's 2024 album and its deluxe edition “Eternal Sunshine: Brighter Days Ahead,” the latter of which arrived in 2025 with a short movie.
