Since Suspension Kyrie Irving Has Made Huge Donations, Helps Refugee Women With $50,000
Kyrie Irving, the great player for the Brooklyn Nets, has helped countless communities and individuals during his NBA career.
Since His Suspension Kyrie Irving Has Made Huge Donations
It follows harsh criticism, a fine, and a suspension for the 30-year-old superstar after he refused to apologise for posting a link to an anti-Semitic movie on social media. In addition to Holocaust denial, the movie “Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America” contains a variety of extremely insulting criticisms of Jewish.
Kyrie Irving has discreetly contributed to multiple GoFundMe campaigns during the 2022–23 season. In fact, the Nets superstar has contributed more than $300,000 to at least five GoFundMe campaigns in recent weeks when you add up all of his contributions. His most recent gift, which arrived last week, was a touching one that the recipients hadn’t anticipated.
Haven’t heard any of the media talking heads reporting about this. And sadly, all of the Black media and Black journalists who were literally running to bash Kyrie Irving a few weeks ago haven’t said a word about any of this either. Like not a peep. Not even a whisper smh pic.twitter.com/NUxyUmRmgI

The state stopped providing subsidies for daycare at a lot of childcare institutions in Missoula, Montana. Little Twigs Childcare in Missoula was one of those clinics that was impacted.
The pulled subsidy affected a whopping 50 children at the Little Twigs Childcare Center and also meant the center had to layoff 15 refugee women. This led the Little Twigs director to set up a GoFundMe fundraiser with a goal of $24,000.

On December 15, Kyrie Irving learned about the event and gave twice the intended amount, or $50,000. On Wednesday morning, the money raised increased to $66,626 thanks to his generous donation. The guard made this donation in the same private manner as his prior ones.
The Nets guard’s other most recent donation came on Dec. 20, when he gifted $50,000 to the GoFundMe for Jaheim McMillan, a 16-year-old boy who was shot and killed by police in Mississippi on Oct. 6. Irving also donated $323,000 to Feeding America and $22,000 to a college student in need at Howard University named Destiny Thompson, and $65,000 to the family of Shanquella Robinson, an American woman who tragically died in Mexico. All donations came through GoFundMe fundraisers.
