BTS during their visit to the White House for Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month in 2022[1]
South Korean boy band BTS are known for their philanthropic endeavors. Multiple members of the band have been inducted into prestigious donation clubs, such as the UNICEF Honors Club and the Green Noble Club, in acknowledgement of the size and frequency of their donations.[2][3][4] They have also received awards for their donations, with one member receiving a Patron of the Arts Award for donations to the arts,[5] and BTS as a whole receiving a UNICEF Inspire Award for their Love Myself campaign. They often donate privately, with their patronage later being made public by the organizations they support and the media.[2][6] The band's efforts have motivated their fans to also engage in various charitable and humanitarian activities, and on occasion even match their donations.[7]
