Which nonprofits has Billie Eilish publicly endorsed or partnered with?
Executive summary
Billie Eilish has publicly partnered with and endorsed several nonprofits tied to climate, food equity and music sustainability—most prominently REVERB (her long‑standing environmental tour partner) and Support+Feed (her mother Maggie Baird’s nonprofit focused on plant‑based food and food security) —and recently announced $11.5 million in tour‑proceeds to causes addressing food equity and climate justice, with funds routed through REVERB’s programs [1] [2] [3]. Available sources also list other groups she has supported at times—HeadCount and Global Citizen are noted in a charity profile—but comprehensive, up‑to‑date lists of every nonprofit endorsement are not provided in the current reporting [4].
1. The core environmental partner: REVERB — tour sustainability and climate funds
Billie Eilish has a long‑standing, visible working relationship with REVERB: her tour sustainability program and Changemaker ticket proceeds are administered in partnership with REVERB, which manages the Climate Impact Fund and the Music Decarbonization Project she helped co‑found, and prior collaborations reportedly generated over $1 million for environmental and climate justice projects [1] [5].
2. Family‑run nonprofit: Support+Feed — plant‑based food, climate and food security
Support+Feed, founded by Billie’s mother Maggie Baird, is repeatedly presented as part of Eilish’s activism fold: the nonprofit promotes plant‑based meals to fight climate change and food insecurity, has been integrated into Eilish tour initiatives (the “Eco‑Village”), and has distributed meals in dozens of cities; Eilish and brother Finneas have publicly supported and appeared at fundraising events for Support+Feed [2] [6] [7].
3. High‑profile donation announcement: $11.5M from the tour and destination of funds
At the WSJ Innovator Awards, Stephen Colbert announced that Eilish would donate $11.5 million in proceeds from her Hit Me Hard and Soft tour to organizations tackling food equity, climate justice and carbon‑pollution reduction; multiple outlets report those proceeds will benefit organizations and projects selected through REVERB’s funds and programs [3] [8] [9].
4. Changemaker Program and music‑industry decarbonization work
Eilish’s Changemaker Program is explicitly tied to environmental initiatives through REVERB, including the Music Decarbonization Project and Music Climate Revolution campaign. Reporting notes she’s worked with REVERB “for years” on these industry‑focused sustainability efforts alongside other artists [5] [1].
5. Other organizations cited in charity profiles: HeadCount, Global Citizen, Fender Play Foundation
Profiles and charity listings reference additional groups Eilish has supported or signed onto: she signed a 2022 Global Citizen open letter urging climate and poverty action, and charity profiles list HeadCount among charities she’s supported; a Fender Play Foundation page includes a Billie Eilish entry, suggesting some affiliation with music‑education philanthropy, though details in the provided snippets are limited [3] [4] [10].
6. Critical and alternative viewpoints on the donations and channels
Reporting and commentary show divergent takes: mainstream outlets emphasize the charitable impact and alignment with her sustainability work, while critics (e.g., a Capital Research Center piece) argue the $11.5M donation is processed through REVERB and question the optics of celebrity philanthropy and whether funds are coming directly from Eilish herself, highlighting an argument about performative giving versus substantive personal charity [11] [1].
7. What the sources do not provide — limits to current reporting
Available sources do not provide a definitive, exhaustive list of every nonprofit Eilish has ever endorsed or partnered with, nor do they list all the specific organizations that will receive the $11.5M in final grants beyond general categories (food equity, climate justice, carbon reduction); nor do they provide detailed grant amounts per recipient in the current reporting [3] [8] [4].
8. How to verify and next steps if you need a complete list
To assemble a full, current list, consult primary documents and statements from Eilish’s official channels (tour sustainability pages and press releases), REVERB’s grant disclosures or annual reports for the Climate Impact Fund, and Support+Feed’s filings and news pages; the store and tour sustainability pages already name REVERB and Support+Feed as formal partners [1] [2]. Current reporting indicates key partners but stops short of an exhaustive roster [4].
Summary takeaway: Reporting consistently identifies REVERB and Support+Feed as central nonprofit partners in Eilish’s environmental and food‑equity work, documents a high‑profile $11.5M tour‑proceeds pledge routed through REVERB programs, and cites additional charity affiliations in profiles; however, available sources do not offer a complete, itemized list of all nonprofits she has ever endorsed [1] [2] [3] [4].
