Billionaire reality TV star and makeup mogul, Kylie Jenner donated $1 million to aid in the fight against COVID-19, and the money, which she donated to her OB-GYN, will be used to purchase the personal protective equipment desperately needed during this trying time.
“I am speechless, my eyes are filled with tears of joy and my heart is overwhelmed with gratitude,” Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi posted to Instagram on Wednesday. “I made a wish to the Universe to gather protective masks for our brave health care workers and today my dream came true.”
Kylie joined the likes of other celebrities who have donated money during this trying time. Lady Gaga announced on Instagram that Haus Labs will be donating 20 percent of profits to local food banks, while Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds will be donating one million dollars to split between Feeding America and Feeding Canada. Seeing celebrities use their platforms and power to help is inspiring and appreciated, especially to those directly affected.
"From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU @kyliejenner. You are my hero," Alaibadi writes at the end of the caption. "This generous donation will help save many precious lives. Our world is a better place with you in it. I love you so much. Thank you X a million."
