Keeping Up with The Kardashians star Kim Kardashian announced on Saturday that she is donating $1 million to the Armenia Fund, which is directly helping those impacted during the unrest with food, shelter, and medical care.
Kardashian, whose father was Armenian, shared the news in an Instagram video on Saturday.
She also wrote a lengthy statement about the conflict, saying: "I’m so honored to be part of today’s global effort to support the @armeniafund. I’ve been speaking out about the current situation in Armenia and Artsakh and having conversations with so many others to bring further awareness to the crisis that we cannot allow to advance,"
"My thoughts and prayers are with the brave men, women, and children. I want everyone to remember that despite the distance that separates us, we are not limited by borders and we are one global Armenian nation together," Kardashian added.
She also encouraged her followers to donate as well: "The @armeniafund is directly helping those that have been impacted during this critical time with humanitarian aid through food, shelter, and medical care. I will be donating $1M to assist their efforts on the ground and invite you to join me. Whether you are helping with just raising awareness and posting on social media or donating just $1, every bit helps".
