Actor Steve Carell showed up in a big way for high school students affected by the recent wildfires in Altadena and the Pacific Palisades in Los Angeles. The Office actor, 62, partnered with charity Alice’s Kids (@alicewillhelp), to pay for all seniors to attend prom at six different high schools in Altadena, California.
According to Alice’s Kids founder and executive director Ronald “Ron” Fitzsimmons, Carell will be sending about 800 seniors to prom for free. Fitzsimmons told USA Today that Alice’s Kids will donate about $175,000 in total.
The uplifting news was shared via Alice’s Kids Instagram page, with a personal message from Carell that was played at each high school via video projection in auditoriums. “A special message from our friend Steve Carell. Right now, this is being viewed by every senior at the six high schools in Altadena, CA!! @stevecarellofficial,” the video’s caption reads.
