NFL Star Drew Brees Donating 5 Million Dollars To Fight Coronavirus In Louisiana
41 year old Drew Brees is a wealthy man. As a star in the National Football League for almost 20 years he has accumulated 120 million dollars of net worth. He is now donating 5 million, or 4.1% of his net worth to fight the coronavirus that is attacking his home city of New Orleans.
I'd like to see other rich and famous follow suit. For example Donald Trump likes to mention that he donates his 450,000 dollar yearly salary to various government causes. If Trump's net worth is even one billion (he says it is much more) that means Trump donates less than 1/2 of 1/1000th of his money, or .00045 .
Give Drew Brees some big props for great generosity. And he may even be a Trump supporter for all I know.
Well done Drew; you the man!
Kudos Drew, Well done.
good for Drew and good for everybody who has donated something to help out
Many people are stepping up to help with this pandemic in every way they can. Some with their actual time, others with supplies and still others with financial contributions.
Am not intending to make this political because it isn't, but I wonder if Medal of Freedom winner Rush Limbaugh has sacrificed anything, or Glenn Beck, Rupert Murdoch, Steve Mnuchin or any other of the multi millionaires in Trump's circle?
