Owing to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic, the entire world is going through a crisis. As in most of the countries, lockdown is observed, the lives of people have been affected. Especially, the daily wage workers are going through a miserable life condition. In a wake of such a situation, commoners, as well as several celebrities, lend a helping hand. Now, joining the long list of good doers is none other than Leonardo DiCaprio.
Yesterday, the Once Upon A Time In Hollywood star launched an initiative, America’s Food Fund, in order to feed the low-income families by raising funds. He is getting huge support from technology giant Apple and Philanthropist Lauren Powell Jobs. The collected sum will be given to various organizations that work for feeding the needy ones.
Apple is proud to support @ChefJoseAndres’s @WCKitchen and @FeedingAmerica. We can only overcome this crisis if we make sure that every person has the essentials they need to care for themselves, their families and the vulnerable people in their lives. https://t.co/Hd5iioL4bD

I believe that America’s Food Fund will be a powerful way to make a difference for our neighbors in need and am committing $1 million to this fund to support those facing food insecurity.
