Variety reports that Ed Sheeran donated a portion of his proceeds from the sales of "Autumn Variations" and his newly-released "Fan Living Room Sessions" to the music education non-profit organization Save The Music.

Per the report, the proceeds of Sheeran's donations will be funneled to the organization to aid them in helping schools, students, and communities, to "unlock their full potential through making music."

Save The Music was also instrumental in Sheeran's efforts to visit schools in Los Angeles and New York City to donate guitars for their music departments.
