Dwayne Johnson Donates 'Seven Figures' to Support Fellow SAG-AFTRA Members
to the SAG-AFTRA Foundation , answering a plea sent out to 2,700 of the guild’s highest-paid members to help offset financial hardships brought about by the strike. “We rely on donations and grants to provide services,” the group’s executive director Cyd Wilson told Variety, noting that the group also reached out to its most financially solvent members for help during the pandemic.
Added Wilson, “It’s the largest single donation that we’ve ever received from one individual at one time. And what is amazing is that that one check is going to help thousands of actors keep food on their table, and keep their kids safe, and keep their cars running. And it’s not lost on me that he’s very humble about this, but it is a way to get us started.”
