Here are the best things Kim Kardashian has done for the world.
00:03
Kim Kardashian doing charity work?
00:06
No, that can't be right, but all evidence points to that.
00:10
This is the Kardashian you rarely get to see, giving her time to patients at Children's
00:15
Hospital Los Angeles.
00:16
According to E!, back in 2013, it was revealed that Kardashian donated 10% of everything
00:22
she makes to different charities.
00:23
A portion of every clothing line, each endorsement deal, her TV salary, payouts for promotional
00:28
appearances, and everything else is given back to those who aren't as fortunate as she
00:32
is.
00:33
A spokesperson for Kim told E! News that she's been sharing her wealth for many years, even
00:37
before she rose to prominent fame.
00:39
In a 2011 appearance on Piers Morgan Tonight, Kim confirmed that whatever she earns, she
00:44
donates 10% of it every year.
00:46
She said, absolutely.
00:48
On season 14 of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kim decided to raise awareness to the homelessness
00:52
problem in her home city.
00:54
In an episode, she visited Alexandria House, a shelter for women and children, and hosted
00:58
a party for those who live there, offering them products and services, according to E!
01:02
News.
01:03
We just want to thank you, Kim, for bringing your amazing crew here for Alexandria House.
01:10
After the episode aired, Kim tweeted that many people started to donate to Alexandria
01:13
House because of her decision to highlight the shelter on Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
01:18
Just got off the phone with our show producers who informed me that since our last episode
01:21
on homelessness aired, Alexandria House has been flooded with donations from people who
01:25
were so moved.
01:26
One person even donated $1 million.
01:29
Thank you to those who have helped to make a difference.
01:31
Alexandria House, she wrote.
01:33
Now before I continue, she's donated a lot of money and everyone should know that she
01:37
actually doesn't need to donate a dime.
01:40
It seems like she never gets credit for the good things she does.
01:43
According to The Hollywood Reporter, while making an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres
01:46
Show in 2018, Kim announced her donations to the California relief efforts due to the
01:50
fires that happened.
01:52
On behalf of my husband Kanye and Yeezy and Adidas, they are going to donate $200,000
01:58
to the California firefighters.
02:01
While talking to Ellen, Kim expressed gratitude to the firefighters who'd saved the homes
02:04
she shared with Kanye West from the fires that happened in California.
02:07
She said,
02:08
We were so grateful to them.
02:09
Honestly, we couldn't do it without them.
02:11
To show her gratitude, she announced two $200,000 donations, one going to the relief fund and
02:16
the other to the California Fire Foundation.
02:18
Kim partnered with her then-husband Kanye West and his Adidas Yeezy label to give the
02:22
money away.
02:23
Kim even gave away $100,000 to a firefighter named Michael and his wife Lisa who lost their
02:28
home in the Woolsey fire while helping them save other homes.
02:31
She said,
02:32
We obviously have all the firefighters that have helped, but to know that you lost your
02:35
home, Kanye, Yeezy, and Adidas wanted to donate to you guys $100,000 so you can begin to pick
02:40
up the pieces.
02:41
Back in 2017, Hurricane Harvey, a category 4 storm, wreaked havoc on many parts of Texas,
02:47
taking the lives of at least 11 people and more without homes, according to ABC News.
02:51
In an effort to give back to those who were affected by the storm, Kim, along with her
02:55
mom and sisters, donated $500,000 to the Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund.
02:59
The Kardashians announced a whopping $500,000 donation to the victims of Hurricane Harvey
03:05
in Texas.
03:06
It's not just about giving it away, it's about finding something you really connect with,
03:09
she said.
03:10
So many people ask us to donate money, but some things just don't make sense to me and
03:14
I don't feel connected or passionate to that certain thing.
03:17
So when I find something I like, it just makes it so much more meaningful.
03:21
So Kim Kardashian also advocates for reforming the justice system.
03:24
Kim is following in her late father's footsteps by studying to become a lawyer.
03:28
She's began a four year apprenticeship with a law firm in San Francisco last summer and
03:33
she plans on taking the bar in 2022.
03:37
She's expressed interest in reforming the justice system and has even advocated and
03:40
assisted in helping several cases be overturned, including her most notable case to help pardon
03:46
Alice Marie Johnson.
03:47
According to USA Today, Kim appealed to help grant clemency to Alice, who had been sentenced
03:52
to life behind bars for an offense.
03:54
Recently, Kim advocated for the exoneration of Melissa Lucio, a mother who was sentenced
03:59
for ending the life of her daughter in 2008, despite proof that it was a complete accident.
04:03
Looking into this case has been so sad.
04:06
Kim's efforts to bring attention to Melissa's case seemed to work as Kim expressed gratitude
04:10
over the decision to grant Melissa a hearing on her claims for her case.
04:14
So she's also rumored to have been trying to help free the Menendez brothers.
04:18
After her marriage with Kris Humphries ended after 72 days, Kim Kardashian decided to give
04:23
away all of her wedding gifts that she received.
04:26
According to the Huffington Post, she gave away $200,000 worth of gifts to the Dream
04:30
Foundation, which grants wishes to adults facing various conditions.
04:33
So you know all the wedding gifts Kim and Kris got, right?
04:37
Well, she's giving back.
04:38
Not the actual gifts, but double the cash value of the presents she received.
04:44
Erin Lynch, a spokesperson for the Dream Foundation, told the Huffington Post that the organization
04:49
is grateful Kim is using this situation to help others, saying that it's not the first
04:52
time Kim has donated to them.
04:54
Kim has a long history of giving to Dream Foundation with her time, financial contributions,
04:59
and simply holding the hands of dreamers facing serious conditions.
05:02
We're thankful to have Kim as part of our service.
05:05
When Kim was six months pregnant with North West, a source told US Weekly that she and
05:09
Kanye had not registered for any baby supplies, nor did they plan to in the future.
05:13
Instead, they asked that friends, family, and fans donate money to the Lurie Children's
05:17
Hospital in Chicago, where Kanye grew up.
05:19
A spokesperson for the hospital told TMZ that the money raised would be used to treat babies.
05:23
Ann and Robert H. Lurie's Children's Hospital of Chicago would like to extend its sincerest
05:27
gratitude to the Kim Kardashian and Kanye West for their thoughtfulness and support
05:31
for the hospital.
05:32
A representative for the hospital said in a statement,
05:42
According to Glamour, Kim, along with her nephew Mason Disick, made a fan's dreams
05:46
come true through Make-A-Wish Foundation.
05:48
Kim posted a photo beside the young girl, captioning it,
05:56
Kim has really shown that her influence goes way beyond the world of celebrity, fashion,
06:00
and reality TV.
06:01
Over the years, she's used her platform to give back in truly meaningful ways.
06:04
From donating millions to relief efforts like those for Hurricane Harvey and California
06:08
fires to shining a spotlight on issues like homelessness, Kim has proven that generosity
06:12
isn't just about writing checks, it's about making an impact.
06:15
Her efforts in the justice system are especially noteworthy.
06:18
Kim's work to help people who have been wrongfully sentenced, like Alice Marie Johnson
06:22
and Melissa Lucio, shows how much she's committed to using her voice to advocate for
06:26
the voiceless.
06:27
And in a world where many might shy away from taking on tough cases, Kim has embraced them
06:32
head on, following in the footsteps of her late father, Rob Kardashian, who was a champion
06:36
for justice.
06:37
On a more personal level, Kim has consistently found ways to use her own life's milestones
06:41
to make a difference.
06:42
From donating her wedding gifts to the Dream Foundation, asking for donations for children's
06:46
hospitals instead of baby gifts, she's shown that even the smallest gestures can have a
06:50
big impact.
06:51
And those are just a few examples of the countless ways she's used her fame and fortune to
06:54
help others.
06:55
At the end of the day, Kim Kardashian is more than just a reality TV star, she's someone
06:59
who has used her privilege to make the world a better place.
07:02
Whether it's raising awareness, advocating for reform, or giving directly to those in
07:05
need, her actions show that we all have the power to create positive change.
07:09
Kim's journey is far from over, and the impact she's making is only just beginning.
