About Michael Bolton and his charity work
Bolton began his music career in the 1970s as a rock musician under his birth name, Michael Bolotin. According to Turner Classic Movies, he rose to prominence as Michael Bolton in the late 1980s and early 1990s with ballads such as “How Am I Supposed to Live Without You,” his cover of “When a Man Loves a Woman,” and “Love is a Wonderful Thing.”

He founded the Michael Bolton Charities with the mission of responding to the issues that affect women and children, including domestic violence, poverty, abuse, and human trafficking. The charity foundation was founded in 1993 to raise funds and help the homeless and helpless women.
He started having hit albums only after working for eighteen years. When some of his albums became industry hits, he was called to fundraising events. That is when he realized that he could make changes in others lives using his popularity and can also help people with fundraising programs.
His first instinct was to help people struggling economically because he could relate to having to raise a family without a weekly paycheck. They found a lot of people and their families were in shelters, not necessarily because of poverty but because of domestic violence. So they decided to make this foundation about women and children, with an emphasis on helping to end domestic violence and violence against women.
After the foundation was found , it has helped many homeless and vulnerable women and children across the country. Bolton also said in 2019 that he wants create more Family Justice Centers to raise awareness about the domestic violence. He also thinks that more men come in to support the cause.
