Kanye West has donated $2 million to the families of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, while simultaneously launching a college fund for Floyd's daughter, TMZ reports.

The donation will go towards legal fees for Taylor and Arbery's families, in addition to multiple black-owned businesses in his hometown of Chicago as well as other cities who have been disproportionately impacted by crisis.

According to a representative of West, the 42-year-old musician/designer has started a 529 college savings fund that will fully cover tuition for George Floyd's six-year-old daughter, Gianna.

Floyd and Taylor both died at the hands of police officers, while Arbery was gunned down by three white men while jogging near Brunswick, Georgia.
