Pearl Jam is a Seattle band in origin. Their frontman and lead singer Eddie Vedder is from Illinois. From the band’s website:
Pearl Jam and the band’s manager Kelly Curtis have pledged a donation of $125,000 to The United Way of Genesee County to aid in the support of Flint, Michigan residents during the area’s current water crisis.
A close group of the band’s friends and partners including Glaser Progress Foundation, Live Nation, Brandi Carlile’s Looking Out Foundation, Republic Records, Ticketmaster, Universal Music Publishing Group and William Morris Endeavor Entertainment kindly came in with an additional donation of $175,000.
Funds will be donated to The United Way of Genesee County's Flint Water Fund, which serves both the immediate and long-term needs of the community.
They’ve announced this financial pledge alongside an online campaign to raise funds along with the United Way of Genesee County.
