Ever the philanthropist, Billboard is reporting today that Jack White has donated $200,000 to the National Recording Preservation Foundation, a U.S. Congress established initiative that is pretty much exactly what it sounds like.

The money helps make the foundation operational, with its executive director Gerald Seligman calling it a “game changer.”

“With this contribution we can now put up our basic structure, begin enacting the preservation plan – and give out our first grants,” said Seligman in a statement. “We’re committed to doing that right away, and certainly within the coming months.”
