Hollywood couple with a big heart: Reynolds and Lively donate again

Ryan Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively are one of the most generous couples in Hollywood. Wherever financial help is needed, they are there. This time a considerable sum goes to homeless children.

The actor couple Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are often involved in charitable causes. Now the Hollywood stars have once again proven their generosity and donated 250,000 US dollars (around 209,000 euros) each to the Covenant House Vancouver and the Covenant House Toronto, as the organization announced via Instagram, among other things.

The non-profit organization Covenant House has been providing homeless youth in Canada with essential things such as food and shelter for more than 40 years. It helps them to build an independent and successful life, it says on the website. Victims of human trafficking can also find help.

"They do the work of heroes"

"Covenant House offers love, hope and stability for vulnerable youth who have fled physical, emotional and sexual abuse," Ryan Reynolds said in a statement now. "They do the work of heroes." He has supported the organization for many years. The actor also encourages others to make a donation. Because he and his wife are part of a special campaign. Funds going to Covenant House by December 31st will be doubled by Reynolds and Lively.

It's nowhere near the first time Reynolds and Lively have made a generous donation in 2020. As recently as June, US $ 200,000 (about 167,000 euros) went to the American civil rights organization NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People). In March, the two gave one million US dollars (about 836,000 euros) to Feeding America and Food Banks Canada and 400,000 US dollars (about 334,000 euros) to the hospitals in New York particularly hard hit by the corona pandemic.
