Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have demonstrated their generosity once again by donating $1 million to support children in both Israel and Gaza. The couple made this generous contribution to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), with the specific intention of aiding children affected by the ongoing conflicts in the region, as reported by THR. This is not the first time they have shown their philanthropic side, as they previously donated $1 million to the SAG-AFTRA strike and have supported various charitable causes in the past.

Their commitment to making a positive impact is well-documented. In the past, they matched up to $1 million in donations to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees during the Russia-Ukraine conflict, donated $500,000 to support the Indigenous-focused safe water charity Water First Education & Training Inc, and contributed $1 million to Feeding America and Food Banks Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic. Most recently, they donated $1 million to the SAG-AFTRA Foundation’s financial assistance program.

The ICRC, as the recipient of their recent donation, has been actively involved in providing humanitarian aid in the midst of the Israel-Gaza conflict. They have dispatched medical supplies, including body bags and stretchers, to a Gaza hospital in response to the Hamas terrorist attacks. The organization is also working to assess and repair damage to sewage and water treatment infrastructure, as well as providing medical care to those in need.

Notably, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have set an example by being the first celebrities to publicly offer financial support to both Israel and Gaza amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. Their dedication to charitable causes is commendable, and their recent donation will undoubtedly make a significant impact on the lives of children in the region.
