Grammy Weekend events, including Sunday's awards, raised more than $24 million for wildfire relief and other charitable causes.

The Recording Academy and CBS' decision to turn the 67th Annual Grammy Awards into a fundraising event has paid off. Sunday night's awards show raised over $24 million for wildlife relief efforts as well as other charitable organizations.
