From Nicola to Hadid sisters, Hollywood celebs donate millions for Palestinians
In a heartwarming display of solidarity, US supermodel sisters Bella and Gigi Hadid joined Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan in generously donating for families impacted by the Gaza genocide. Bella, Gigi, and Nicola’s combined contributions total $2.2 million, offering crucial support through humanitarian organizations and the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund.
The Hadid sisters’ donation will be split equally among Heal Palestine, Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, World Central Kitchen, and the United Nations Relief and Works Agency. These organizations provide food, medical aid, psychological services, and support for displaced families in Gaza.
Bella and Gigi Hadid, daughters of Palestinian property tycoon Mohamed Anwar Hadid, have always supported the Palestinian cause. Bella recently shared her heartbreak over the “devastating loss of the Palestinian people” in an Instagram post.
Bella also highlighted her commitment to Palestine by wearing a dress made from keffiyeh, a traditional Palestinian cloth, at the Cannes Film Festival. She called it “a beautiful way to represent the history and resilience of Palestinian culture.”
Nicola Coughlan, star of the popular Netflix series Bridgerton, has raised $1.2 million (£1.01 million) for the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF) through a social media campaign.
Known for her role as Penelope Hetherington, Coughlan used her platform to support humanitarian causes, especially those affecting children in genocide zones. Her campaign received much support, and she shared the news on Instagram.
Coughlan thanked everyone who contributed, saying, “I’m overwhelmed by the amount raised so far and very grateful to everyone who has shared it. Please continue to do so if you can.”
The Palestine Children’s Relief Fund confirmed that the fundraiser attracted donations from Coughlan herself and 82,794 other supporters worldwide.
