Audrey Nuna Launches $1 Million Educational Campaign for Luminos Fund

Audrey Nuna, a celebrated singer known for her role as the singing voice of Mira in Netflix’s popular film K-Pop Demon Hunters, has recently initiated a groundbreaking fundraising campaign to support the Luminos Fund. This international nonprofit organization focuses on providing education to some of the world’s most vulnerable children who have been deprived of fundamental learning opportunities. The campaign was spawned following her appearance as a finalist in a widely viewed MrBeast celebrity challenge, which garnered over 75 million views globally.

As part of this initiative, Audrey has set an ambitious goal of raising $1 million within a year—a feat she hopes will help deliver quality education to at least 100,000 children. During the MrBeast challenge, she openly disclosed her commitment to donating her award earnings to the cause, thus reinforcing her steadfast belief in the importance of education. "If kids didn’t have a chance to start school, the Luminos program is a second chance at getting basically three years’ of curriculum," said Nuna, expressing her enthusiasm about supporting the endeavor.

The Luminos Fund employs an accelerated and activity-based education approach, enabling children to learn critical skills such as reading, writing, and mathematics in a condensed timeline of just ten months. This innovative program aims to bridge the educational gap for vulnerable children, equipping them to successfully integrate into government schools afterward. Operating primarily in crisis-affected areas and underserved regions, including parts of sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East, Luminos has successfully empowered hundreds of thousands of children with a renewed chance to learn and thrive.

In an engaging interview with Forbes, Nuna outlined the motivation driving her campaign and emphasized the importance of community involvement. She encouraged her fans to contribute to the campaign in any way they could, stating, “Donate the cost of your matcha latte. Five dollars, ten dollars—the more the merrier. And if you can’t donate, please share.” To amplify her commitment, she has pledged to personally match the first $50,000 raised during the campaign’s opening week, further motivating her supporters to join her in this philanthropic endeavor.

Caitlin Baron, the CEO of the Luminos Fund, expressed gratitude towards Audrey for her significant dedication to education and highlighted how her efforts are inspiring. Baron enthusiastically stated, “We are blown away by Audrey’s commitment to education and our cause. It’s truly inspiring. Her generosity and the way she is mobilizing her community will help accelerate Luminos’s impact in the year ahead.”
