Giving Compass' Take:

• Global Citizen reports on the generosity of the late pop music influencer, DJ Avicii, who donated millions of dollars to organizations fighting world hunger, including the US charity Feeding America.

• What can those involved in such causes do to keep DJ Avicii's legacy alive? One way is to recognize that malnutrition continues to be a complex problem that requires sustainable solutions, rather than quick fixes.

• Here's how we can all help solve the hunger crisis through philanthropic partnerships.

Swedish DJ Avicii, whose real name was Tim Bergling, died in Oman on April 20 at the age of 28.

Now, a week after his death, it has emerged that Bergling donated millions of dollars to organizations working to end malnutrition around the world.

Through a number of chart-topping hits and sell-out club sessions, for which he brought in fees of over $250,000, he managed to amass a fortune of more than $109 million.

In 2012, he went on a 27-date tour called “House for Hunger ” around America — and donated his entire income from the tour to the US charity Feeding America, according to the New York Post.

In the US, one in every eight people struggles with hunger. The charity Feeding America has a network of 200 food banks, 60,000 food pantries and meal programs in operation, according to the website.

The charity aims to help get nutritious food to people in need, and help people to build a more food-secure future for themselves.

Following the tour, Avicii also then donated a further $1 million to the charity.
