Bon Iver will set up donation stands at each of their upcoming tour dates “in an effort to end gender inequality, domestic violence, and sexual abuse.”
Justin Vernon’s Bon Iver are just about to set off on a world tour but before they do they’ve announced a new campaign to promote gender equity and equality. The campaign, which they’ve dubbed, 2 A Million, will see the band co-operate with local non-profits on each of their upcoming tour dates in order to raise money and promote awareness of the issues surrounding gender equity, domestic violence and sexual abuse. See the band’s full statement in the Tweet below.
