Megan Thee Stallion to Be Honored for Her Philanthropy at Golden Heart Awards

Megan Thee Stallion has long been proving that hot girls help out causes they believe in, and now, her philanthropy will be honored at the Golden Heart Awards benefitting hunger-fighting charity God’s Love We Deliver.

As announced Tuesday (Sept. 10), the “Hiss” rapper will receive recognition in the form of the inaugural genLOVE award for outstanding philanthropy, presented for the first time ever at the gala taking place on Oct. 21 in New York City. Sarah Jessica Parker will also be honored at the event, accepting the Michael Kors award for outstanding philanthropy during the ceremony inside the historic Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine.

Kors is one of the Golden Heart Awards’ returning co-chairs, as are John Idol and Blaine Trump. Anna Wintour is also back as honorary chairwoman.

In addition to the awards, the foursome is planning a dinner curated by restauranteur Melba Wilson for attendees to enjoy, plus a list of surprise guests. One of the night’s highlights will be when five-time Grammy winner Sam Smith takes the stage for a special performance.

Tickets to the Golden Heart Awards are available for purchase online, with different prices offering various perks like digital ads, dedicated social media posts, special recognition at the event and more in addition to seating at the dinner. The more expensive the ticket, the more medically tailored meals are covered for God’s Love We Deliver to donate to people struggling with HIV/AIDS, cancer and other serious illnesses. Last year, the awards honored Scarlett Johansson and Ben Platt and raised more than $3.5 million, funding more than 350,000 nutritional meals to clients.

This year, the charity arguably couldn’t have picked a more philanthropic rapper to spotlight. In 2022, Megan launched her very own non-profit organization, the Pete and Thomas Foundation — named for her late parents — to help fund charitable programs in Houston. Two years later, the foundation introduced its Emergency Power Program under the three-time Grammy winner’s lead, coordinating solutions for senior citizens affected by Hurricane Beryl to have access to power during natural disasters.
