Oscar winning actress Halle Berry is giving it back to the society in the hour of need. The 'Wicked' actress has donated her entire closet to help those affected by the LA Wildfires.
The actress has donated her entire closet to The Coop, which is a store in Beverly Hills which is collecting essentials for the hundreds of people displaced by the wildfires.
She posted a video of her at The Coop and asked those affected and displaced to come and collect clothes from the store.
She had shared the video 4 days ago and thanked actress Sharon Stone for guiding her.
"I’m packing up my entire closet and heading over to the COOP! If you live in the Southern California area, I urge you to do the same. This is something we can do right now today to help all of the displaced families that are in need of the basics today! Thank you @sharonstone for your leadership. Love you Lady ️," she wrote while posting the video along with it.
She is heard saying in the video: “If you live in the Southern California area, I urge you to do that same. This is something we can do right now today to help all of the displaced families that are in need of the basics today!
Halle Berry has partnered with +COOP to collect gently used clothing for men, women, and children.
In a video she posted on her social media, she urged people who were displaced by the fire to get bags of clothes.
She posted another video and wrote: "As you all know, the unimaginable happened this week but we’re coming together as a community to ensure displaced families have the resources they need during this unprecedented time.
I’m at @shopcoopla and @nickeykehoe today as we’re bagging clothes and toys for families that were impacted by the wildfires. We even have drivers with @uber who can deliver items to your home! Please share this post to spread the word to family and friends in need!
#PrayForLA"
In the video she says: "Hey everybody. I’m here with Nickey Kehoe plus the COOP. We’re out here doing what they said they would so, we’re giving back to the community. We’ve got everything you can imagine,” she said. Halle Berry further said that they are also providing new clothes and other essentials for all ages including baby products, toys, and more.
Berry added, “If you don’t have a bag, come here we’ll give you a bag to take it away with. If you can’t come here send somebody on your behalf. You can also reach out to us.” The actress also said that victims are free to DM her personally.
