Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani announced Thursday night that he is donating $500,000 to help firefighters and those forced to live in shelter to help animals in need.
He made the announcement on Instagram.
“Our hearts go out to all the firefighters who continue to fight for us during the fires in LA,” Ohtani wrote in Japanese which was translated to English by Instagram.
“We’ll be donating $500,000 to help those firefighters and those forced to live in shelter to help animals in need.
“The Los Angeles Dodgers are also working together with teams from other competitions to help sell T-shirts and more.
“I hope you all will consider this.
“I hope you recover soon.”
Ohtani is one of the numerous Dodgers to donate to L.A. fire relief.
Freddie and Chelsea Freeman made a $300,000 donation to fire relief. Chris Taylor and Clayton Kershaw are among other Dodgers to raise money.
