In the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, celebrity couple Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have donated a total of US$1 million (S$1.42 million) to non-profit hunger relief organisations Feeding America and Food Banks Canada.
Older adults and low-income families have been "brutally impacted" by Covid-19, they noted in statements posted to their respective social media accounts.
Reynolds, 43, is Canadian, while his wife Lively, 32, is American.
The couple also encouraged their followers to donate to these organisations.
