Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds reveal that they will share one million dollars for those affected by COVID-19.
Blake is known for her role as Serena van der Woodsen in the TV series, Gossip Girl. Ryan is the actor in the film, Deadpool.
According to the couple, they have decided to donate to @feedingamerica and @foodbankscanada.
Feeding America and Food Banks Canada are organizations known for helping relieve hunger of the people.
"COVID-19 has brutally impacted older adults and low income families. Ryan & I are donating $1 million to be split between @feedingamerica and @foodbankscanada. If you can give, these orgs need our help."
Blake also mentioned the importance of social distancing but to also remember the lonely and isolated.
She said, "Though we must be distancing ourselves to protect those who don't have the opportunity to self quarantine, we can stay connected. Remember the lonely and isolated. Facetime, Skype, make a video."
"Remember the love that can travel through all this. Communities are stepping up-- shopping for the elderly, making lunches for children. We can all do something for one another, even if that's simply staying home." Blake added.
Ryan also shared a message in his own Instagram account, "Take care of your bodies and hearts. Leave room for joy. Call someone who's isolated and might need connection."
