Beyonce and Jay-Z are teaming up to help a San Diego charity that helps at-risk children, the AP reports.
The trio announced Thursday that they'll each donate $1 million to the San Diego Foundation, which aims to improve the lives of at-risk children and their families in the area.
The foundation says it's the first time Beyonce and Jay-Z have teamed up to do so.
The money will go to the Children's Defense Fund, which works with at-risk children and their families to prevent trauma and abuse.
"This is a very special time in our lives, and we want to do everything we can to help as many children as we can," Beyonce said in a statement.
Jay-Z said in a separate statement that he's honored to be a part of the fundraising effort.
"The work and impact of the San Diego nonprofit community helps to advance just, equitable, and resilient communities in our region," he said.
