Cubs Rizzo Raising Money For Nurses During Coronavirus Crisis

If you needed any more proof Anthony Rizzo of the Chicago Cubs is a charitable person.

Rizzo, through his Anthony Rizzo Family Foundation, is now raising money to feed the nurses at the forefront of the coronavirus pandemic.

A. Rizzo Foundation via Twitter:

Are you looking for a way to help? Nurses at @LurieChildrens are on the front lines caring for our most vulnerable populations. They continue to give in selfless ways every day for the greater good.

Rizzo's foundation will work with partner restaurants to provide the meals. All they need is your support. Text HOPE44 to 52000 to automatically donate $20.

Donations also accepted at Rizzo44.com/donate.

This isn't the first time Rizzo's foundation has worked with Lurie's Children's Hospital in Chicago. Rizzo, a Hodgkins Lymphoma survivor donated $3.5 million dollars in 2017.
