Chris Hemsworth Pledges One Million Dollars to Fight Australian Fires

Chris Hemsworth shared a video on Instagram on Monday urging his followers to contribute towards helping Australia fight the fires. The Australian bush fires have risen to alarming levels and have already destroyed half-billion living birds, mammals, and reptiles. Being an Australian, Chris Hemsworth has taken this very personally donating $1 million personally, prompting others to contribute how much ever they can.

New South Wales and Victoria were the worse affected and the total land destroyed by fire is in the scale of millions of acres all around the country. Homes and families are being displaced because of the fire.

So far, the fire has claimed the lives of 25 people and by the looks of it will continue claiming more. Experts have stated that the fires are here to stay for another few months.

The Marvel star has also shared links just in case you’d like to donate. Here they are:

• The Australian Red Cross
• The World Wildlife Fund
• Steve Irwin’s Wildlife Warriors organization.
