Morgan Wallen did some good while on the road. The country singer recently wrapped his headline-making Still the Problem Tour, during which he gave back in a big way through his Morgan Wallen Foundation.
Amid the tour, Wallen donated a portion of every ticket sold to his foundation, per a press release. The charity supports youth music and athletic programs and gives communities access to essentials in times of crisis.
