The actors made donation to two hunger relief organisations -- Feeding America and Food Banks Canada.

"Covid-19 has brutally impacted older adults and low income families. Blake and I are donating USD 1 million to be split between Feeding America and Food Banks Canada. If you can give, these orgs need our help. 'Take care of your bodies and hearts. Leave room for joy. Call someone who's isolated and might need connection," Reynolds wrote in the announcement posted on Instagram.

Lively added, "Remember the love that can travel through all this. Communities are stepping up -- shopping for the elderly, making lunches for children. We can all do something for one another, even if that's simply staying home."
