[2026] The spirit of mutual support connected by music: A collection of classic charity songs

Although dark news such as wars and major disasters continues day after day, those who are actually facing hardship may not even have the luxury of listening to music.

Even so, artists around the world have released many charity songs that will go down in music history, guided by their own convictions.

Because these songs lead directly to support, it’s important that we as listeners can take part in charitable activities by purchasing the tracks.

In this article, we introduce a curated selection of charity songs—both international and Japanese—that we hope you’ll listen to now.

We’ve included many recently released tracks as well, so please lend an ear to the artists’ heartfelt cries.
