We will do everything we can to ensure that the outpouring of love that came as a part of this campaign finds maximum impact with those in need.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The actor went on to discuss how the money had already been distributed to partners Flexport.org and Airbnb.org so they can use the aid immediately.
