Tennis Legend Serena Williams is a common name when it comes to charity and fundraising ceremonies. A few years back, she joined hands with the NFL legend Colin Kaepernick to provide charitable donations to the underprivileged.

The former San Francisco 49ers quarterback turned civil rights activist Colin Kaepernick began this initiative in 2016. His goal was to donate $1 million to various charitable organizations across the country. Every person involved raising $10,000 for charity.

Serena Williams makes her contribution

Reportedly, all the collected money was going to Imagine LA, to provide support for all those homeless and poor families in a short period of 10 days. Kaepernick himself donated $10,000 every day, with other significant personalities joining hands for the noble cause.

Since the campaign kick-started, Serena Williams matched the contributions by giving her part of $10,000. Stephen  Curry, Kevin Durant, Snoop Dogg, and actor Jesse Williams were the other four personalities to participate. Responding to Williams’ contributions, Kaepernick thanked the Grand Slam Champion through Twitter.

“My sister Serena Williams asked that I donate to Imagine LA, an org dedicated to mobilizing the community to end the cycle of family homelessness & poverty. Serena is going #10for10 to match my $10k donation w/$10k as well! Serena, THANK YOU!” he wrote.
