Online Petition Urges Rock Singer to End His Philanthropy
August 1, 2008
An online petition has been created to ask U2 singer Bono to stop his philanthropic efforts, reports British music magazine NME.
The petition, available at Thepoint.com, has raised $390 to “get Bono to retire from public life (so he’ll stop leading misguided counterproductive philanthropy efforts).”
If Bono heeds the petition, the money will be donated to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria.
