The powerful earthquake that hit central Mexico last week left at least 355 people dead and hundreds without a place to live. Many celebrities have done their part to help the victims of this natural disaster. Salma Hayek, for example, donated $100,000 to an online fundraising site to help UNICEF assist earthquake victims.
Hurricane Maria drenched Puerto Rico, leaving the island without power, running water or communication. Many people in the island lost everything. And to make things worse, food and resources are running out. Celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, Daddy Yankee, Ricky Martin, Nicky Jam and many more are doing all in their power to raise money to assist those in need and help rebuild the Isla del Encanto.
