Leonardo DiCaprio has a big wallet and an even bigger heart. The actor has generously donated $1 million to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund.
Wow!
The money donated will support near-term assistance and long-term recovery efforts.
Former President George W. Bush said in a statement:
“I salute Leonardo DiCaprio for his extraordinary generosity. This donation sends a clear message to the people of Haiti that America’s commitment to helping rebuild their country is strong. I thank Leo for setting a wonderful example for all Americans of helping a neighbor in need.”
A good example indeed!
Maybe Leo’s donation will inspire others to tune in an donate to Friday night’s telethon.
