The mega-stars are donating life-changing money, for a SECOND time during the pandemic!
From People:
Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are once again giving back amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Feeding America and Food Banks Canada both revealed in respective social media posts that Reynolds, 44, and Lively, 33, pledged $500,000 to each organization in support of their COVID-19 Response Funds. The two stars had previously donated $500,000 to both when the pandemic first began in early 2020.
“When #COVID19 first hit in early 2020, @VanCityReynolds and @BlakeLively generously donated $500K (USD) to US sister organization @FeedingAmerica and to Food Banks Canada helping kickstart our COVID-19 Response Funds,” the organization wrote. “It was an act that inspired so many Canadians to donate to their local food banks and show their support to their neighbours during these critical times.”
“Our heartfelt thanks and gratitude ONCE AGAIN to Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively for pledging another $500K in support of our COVID-19 Response Funds,” the statement continued, before the organization playfully poked fun at Reynold’s ongoing “feud” with fellow actor, Hugh Jackman.
“You continue to be not only our favourite Canadian, but also our favourite superhero 😉 (sorry, Hugh Jackman),” it added.
