The official statement from the Clara Lionel Foundation states,

“Today we’re standing with Detroit and Flint and national organizations in the United States as they respond to COVID-19 with support for food and water access, rental assistance, bail relief, domestic violence survivors, homeless people, foster children, immigrants, and refugees.”

This latest announcement from the Clara Lionel Foundation is amidst a series of donations that Rihanna has contributed to ever since the coronavirus pandemic hit the shores of the United States.

So far Rihanna has teamed up with celebs like Jay Z, Big Sean, Jack Dorsey, and others to donate to coronavirus initiatives in New Orleans and Los Angeles. She’s donated money for public schools, immigration organizations, protective gear for New York health care professionals, and for initiatives in her home country of Barbados and other nations.
