Kristen Bell is closing out 2024 with a charitable gesture… donating a large portion of the change to those who need help with their medical bills.
Here's the skinny… the Frozen star linked to the Instagram personality Tommy Marcus (aka Quentin Quarantino) after receiving a direct message from him about supporting those affected by the “broken healthcare system.”
Originally, Tommy's suggestion was that Kristen share a health-related GoFundMe page in hopes of helping someone in need. While Tommy said there was “no pressure” for her to join in, Kristen soon agreed to the idea… and took the goodwill a step further.
In screenshots shared by the social media star, Kristen explained she was eager to “do more” … and expressed her intention to donate $100,000 to help others' medical bills — but wanted to make sure that Money goes to the people who really need it.
Tommy then suggested to Kristen that he end every fundraiser he shared on his IG page once it reached the halfway point… an idea the actress passionately agreed to.
The “Veronica Mars” alum really made her money: She donated over $20,000 to a third-grader's battle with leukemia. She also paid nearly $25,000 to a named patient Murilowho is fighting the same cancer. This is just the tip of their iceberg!!!

Tommy continued to praise Kristen for her generosity, applauding the TV star for helping accomplish “some of the most important and impactful work we've ever done.”
What a beautiful start to the new year!!!
