The couple has sent their donation to Hope for Haiti as a contribution to the country’s quake relief efforts. Reportedly, Reynolds and Lively’s donation will be used to set up “mobile clinics in the communities where there is the most need, as determined by the Ministry of Health”.
In addition, the organisation will use the money “to cover distribution costs to deliver dry food and warm meals — donated by World Central Kitchen — to families in the Southern Haiti”.
