  1. >The actor and former governor of California shared a post on Instagram Tuesday, Jan. 21, in which he wrote that he is donating $1 million to three foundations to assist in relief efforts more than two weeks after a series of devastating wildfires broke out in L.A.

    >”A lot of my fans have asked me how they can help LA. I’m going to lead the way. I’m sending a million dollars of my own money, split between @ lafdfoundation, @ cafirefound, and @ habitatla. I don’t like when companies or rich people ask their fans to make their donations for them,” Schwarzenegger, 77, wrote in the caption to his post which features a t-shirt that bears his likeness and the phrase “L.A. Strong.”

    >”But I know you want to help. So I had my team design a shirt. 100% of the profits will go to those organizations,” the Terminator actor wrote. “The shirt might look familiar – it’s based on an LA classic, the knock-off version of me they sell to tourists on the Venice boardwalk, except I can use my image. You can get it at the link in my bio.”

  2. He’s leading the way? Didn’t Taylor Swift and plenty other celebrities donate already? Yet again, Rs leading from behind

  3. Dr Evil called and said he wanted a million dollars too.

  4. For a generation of assholes that bitch about their children getting participation trophies(from them) they sure do love getting a participation trophy

  5. Why didn’t he donate a million to the homeless on skid row?

  7. That should cover like one or two houses, nice 👍

  8. I like Arnold as much as the next guy, and yeah that’s something, but his net worth is like billion! He couldn’t put in a little more?

  9. $1 million dollars, so like 1/5 of one of the hundreds of homes?

  12. Not leading the way, but good for you Arnie for chipping in.
