SEATTLE — Some of Seattle's homeless were hired to fill jobs during Beyoncé's Wednesday concert at CenturyLink Field.
The jobs include serving lemonade at concessions, a nod to the name of the singer's latest album, according to the Millionair Club Charity.
The Millionair Club operates a supportive employment program that specializes in helping people who are experiencing homelessness or other barriers to employment to become job-ready, according to its website.
Its services include daily work assignments and temporary job placement.
The Millionair Club tweeted shortly after 5:30 p.m. Wednesday that 236 workers were sent to fill jobs at CenturyLink Field.
