Apr 24 (soranews24.com) - When you think of X Japan frontman Yoshiki, a couple of things might spring to mind. Aside from his illustrious career as the King of J-Rock, Yoshiki is also well-known for his generous donations to organisations in need.
Within the last 12 months alone, the legendary rock star has donated to help victims of the typhoons that hit Japan late last year, the arson recovery fund of Kyoto Animation, and to help with the Australian wildfires.
With the global outbreak of coronavirus, Yoshiki once more put his money where his mouth is and made a sizable donation. Last month, Yoshiki, who has been living in Los Angeles for the past twenty years, previously donated a large sum of money to US-based charity Meals on Wheels, and this week he’s extending his generosity to the Japan-based National Center for Global Health and Medicine with the hope that it will support medical staff battling on the frontlines. Yoshiki added this comment with his 10 million yen (US$92,800) donation.
