Laurene Powell Jobs and @Apple to launch America's Food Fund to help feed local communities. I was struck by the work these organizations are doing and while everyone's priority right now is to stay safer at home, I know there are many of us looking for ways to help. I believe that America's Food Fund will be a powerful way to make a difference for our neighbors in need and am committing $1 million to this fund to support those facing food insecurity. I am donating $10 million overall to help Americans during this pandemic in cities across the country and in areas where I grew up. For more on this Fund and how everyone can be of service, tap the link in my bio to watch this free AppleTV+ conversation.

During Oprah's conversation with Chef José Andrés and Claire Babineaux-Fontenot this week for her series "Oprah Talks COVID-19" on AppleTV+, Oprah was so impressed by the partnership and on the ground work supporting those with food insecurity, that she committed to donating $1 Million to America's Food Fund. This will be part of her overall $10 Million donation to various COVID-19 related relief efforts in communities around the country.
