Beyoncé’s ‘BeyGOOD’ foundation donates $100K to Texas Southern marching band

Klaudia//July 2, 2025
Texas Southern University hit a high note this summer courtesy of Beyoncé’s BeyGOOD foundation. The foundation is gifting $100,000 to the Ocean of Soul, the university’s celebrated marching band. The contribution will be dedicated to advancing the band’s musical and academic excellence. The funds will support scholarships, recruitment efforts, and much-needed enhancements to the band’s infrastructure and technology.

“We are deeply appreciative of the BeyGOOD Foundation for this significant demonstration of its commitment to empowering our student musicians and elevating their form of artistic expression,” Texas Southern University President J.W. Crawford III said in a statement.

The gift comes after the Ocean of Soul’s performance alongside Beyoncé during the NFL’s Christmas Day matchup between the Ravens and Texans that was aired on Netflix. Ocean of Soul Band Director Brian Simmons spoke highly about the performance in a statement.

“The Ocean of Soul is known for its signature sound, precision, and choreography,” he said. “Mrs. Knowles-Carter’s vision for the ‘Beyoncé Bowl’ challenged us to rise even higher, and our students met the challenge with energy, soul, and discipline. To be handpicked for this performance is a testament to the legacy of Texas Southern.”
