It's wonderful, yes!

 

There are many celebrities and others with substantial wealth who give. They just don't go on television to talk about it.

@PhillyGirl23 ...  The reason Bethanny Frankel mentions it is so people like me go to her charity, BStrong, and donate money! Because she made it public, another 4 million dollars was raised !!! ...equals 14 million dollars! Ukrainian people crossing the border into Poland receive urgently needed supplies and a gift card with money on it. She doesn't brag. She announces it to get more donations!

How do you know they donate if they "just don't go on television to talk about it"?

I used to watch her on Housewives & didn't have that great opinion of her. I've slowly changed my mind with her charity work. She talks the talk with proof to back it up! Kudos to her!

Bethenny is awesome, a very strong person. What she endured from her psycho ex would drive anybody else right over the edge!

She is on tv to raise  awareness. She has raised 15 million in addition the original 10 million dollars she donated. She is now working with major companies to get food, travel, and housing for these people. She has 10 tents set up to help the refugees in Poland in addition to people driving refugees across the border and to safety. 

 

I wanted to add that 100 percent of donations go directly to helping people. She takes no administrative fees.

Anyone who can do what she has done in terms of helping those in need has my admiration. 

 

Seems she is often out front and gets to the heart of things without a lot of fanfare.

 

Whatever her background, she is helping others in a way most of us can only dream about.  God bless her.
