Tory Lanez teams up with Amazon Music to launch relief efforts amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Tory Lanez has proven to be an essential service in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. Not only has he released new music to keep the vibes high but Quarantine Radio has kept us entertained throughout the weeks with all of Tory's debaucherous antics. But even with everything he's done to help people cope with being inside during the lockdown, he's announced that he's launching a relief fund in partnership with Los Angeles' Dream Center for "Tory Lanez Dream City Fund."

"Basically, we'll be doing something to provide diapers and food for people that are unfortunately affected by this COVID-19 situation," Tory explained in a video posted to Instagram. "I just linked up with Amazon Music and we both came together. We've reached the place for our first launch goal and the first donation that we want. And together, me and Amazon Music will be donating 100,000 diapers to the Dream City Fund and to Dream Center."

Dream Center has been an integral community resource in the Los Angeles area, especially during the pandemic. They've provided support for individuals and communities who have been affected by providing resources, food, and necessities to those in need. They also deliver food to vulnerable people who are more at risk of COVID-19.
