In a statement, the district thanked the three celebrities for their “generous contribution,” saying it will go towards supporting school programs and initiatives.

“This one-time donation not only reflects a shared belief in the potential of our students but also reinforces the power and impact of community,” a Pittsburgh Public Schools spokesperson said.

Pat McAfee and Wiz Khalifa are western Pennsylvania natives, and while Snoop Dogg isn’t from Pittsburgh, he’s a self-proclaimed Steelers fan.

McAfee went to Plum High School and played college football at West Virginia University. He was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts in 2009 and retired from the NFL in 2017. Now he hosts the popular Pat McAfee Show, which he took on the road and brought to PPG Paints Arena in April.

Rapper Wiz Khalifa grew up in Pittsburgh and attended Allderdice High School in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood. He performed at Star Lake in 2023 with Snoop Dogg, and he’s set to return next month with Sean Paul.

Snoop Dogg, who grew up in California, attended a game at Acrisure Stadium last season. The rapper has previously said that he loves the Steelers because he grew up watching them in the 70s and was amazed by their defense.

The board voted to accept the donation.

July 7th marks a powerful and bittersweet moment in music history—the 8th anniversary of Chester Bennington’s tragic passing, and the birthday of his close friend and fellow icon, Chris Cornell. Chester Bennington – Chris Cornell Chester Bennington, the electrifying frontman of Linkin Park, took his own life on this day in 2017 at the age of 41. His death shook the world, not only because of the raw, emotional power he brought to stages across the globe, but because it came on what would have been Chris Cornell’s 53rd birthday. Cornell, the soul-stirring voice behind Soundgarden and Audioslave, had died by suicide just two months earlier. The deep bond between these two men—built on mutual respect, shared pain, and a love of music—makes today all the more poignant. Bennington was more than just a voice for a generation of fans who felt seen through the cathartic honesty of Linkin Park’s lyrics. He was a husband, a father, a fighter of inner demons, and a beacon of raw, unfiltered emotion. His grief over Cornell’s death was profound. In a moving tribute performance at Cornell’s funeral, Bennington sang Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”—his voice trembling with sorrow.
