Travis Scott has just revealed a multi-tier, long-term series of community philanthropy and investments through his Cactus Jack Foundation called Project HEAL.

The project’s main effort will provide $5 million for community-based initiatives in Texas, Scott’s home state.

Project HEAL includes multiple pillars: addressing safety challenges for large-scale events, providing scholarships for students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities, addressing mental health by pledging “seven figures” to fund digital counseling and telephone hotlines, and other efforts.

“My grandfather was an educator who made a difference in thousands of young lives throughout his life. He is a major influence on me and countless others, whose dreams he believed in, whose hopes he invested in, and whose futures he made big,” said Scott in a release. “It’s in his spirit that we are creating projects and programs that will look to the future of our communities and create hope and excellence in as many lives as possible.”
