SEATTLE, United States — Global pop star P!NK has found massive success through a singing career while continuing to be a force fighting against poverty worldwide. Since her debut in 2000, P!NK has sold over 60 million album equivalents through eight total albums. She has seen 15 singles crack the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart, with four reaching number one, while traveling the world performing in sold-out arenas.
Additionally, she has won three Grammy Awards from 21 nominations, as well as three Billboard Music Awards, six MTV Video Music Awards, two People’s Choice Awards, and two MTV Europe Awards.
UNICEF
Since 2015, P!NK has made continuous efforts to fight the effects of poverty, with a special passion for ending global malnutrition. She uses her platform to bring attention to UNICEF’s global health and nutrition programs. P!nk witnessed the impact therapeutic food can make on a malnourished child following an earthquake in Haiti in 2010. She also mobilized fans to support the cause by posting in support of UNICEF initiatives, including International Day of the Girl and Mother’s Day Gifts that Give Back.
Additionally, she has worked in education programs that inform citizens about healthcare and has been involved in child vaccination program campaigns that aim to protect children from diseases like polio, whooping cough, and diphtheria. Through the “Summer Carnival” Tours in 2023 and 2024, P!NK has continued to support UNICEF efforts by putting QR codes in merchandise booths that link to UNICEF Marker Inspired Gifts, a program that provides healthcare, food, education, and more to communities in need. She encouraged her fans to support UNICEF by purchasing a gift or making a donation.
Share Our Strength
P!NK is also a long-time supporter and champion of “No Kid Hungry,” a national campaign run by the nonprofit organization Share Our Strength, which works to minimize the effects of hunger and poverty around the world. In 2017, P!NK biked 100 miles in the annual “Chefs Cycle” biking fundraiser put on by “No Kid Hungry.” This fundraiser is a high-impact way to raise money to support the hunger crisis, build community, and educate people on initiatives like this. It raises hundreds of thousands of dollars every year, raising $1.3 million most recently during the 2026 ride.
Save the Children
P!NK also joined “Save With Stories,” a “Save the Children” campaign that delivers stories on Instagram to children who were out of school during the height of the pandemic. Along with providing books, “Save the Children” works to increase access to health, education, and protection programs, as well as supporting efforts like emergency response, policymaking, advocacy, and localization.
Robin Hood
Most recently, P!NK performed at the 36th annual Robin Hood Foundation Gala on May 11, 2026, helping to raise over $73 million to fight poverty in New York City. The Robin Hood Foundation works to elevate New Yorkers out of poverty by funding community organizations, communicating with government officials, and advocating for what New Yorkers need. The event marked the beginning of a new $1 billion endowment campaign to further pursue Robin Hood’s critical mission of fighting poverty in New York City. Last year, Robin Hood reported investing $140 million in poverty-fighting grants to 295 community-based service organizations, helping to serve 2.73 million people.
Action Against Hunger 2025 Impact Award Honoree
In October 2025, Action Against Hunger named P!NK as one of its Impact Award Honorees, awarding her the Action Against Hunger Humanitarian Award. In all her efforts mentioned above, P!nk has continued fighting against global poverty and world hunger, raising millions of dollars for the cause. She has used her platform to spread awareness, spending her entire career as an activist.
