Ever the giver, George Clooney is giving a generous donation of $25,000 to an actor’s fund to help those struggling actors impacted by the writers’ strike. If the strike continues, he’ll contribute more and hopes others will do the same:

“To people like myself, the strike is a forced vacation, but with the rhetoric high, and two other strikes looming, there is the fear that a prolonged strike can destroy people who make a living in this industry. My hope is that people who can afford it will take responsibility for this and help out.”
