Days after praising the deadly cornavirus as a “great equalizer,” Madonna has come forward to help those in need, as the COVID-19 outbreak continues to kill and infect thousands of people on a daily basis.
The pop singer has joined in a star-studded effort to provide essential personal protective equipment to prisons.
Other stars who have signed up for the “Reform Alliance” initiative include Jay Z, Meek Mill and Bob Kraft.
The effort is aimed at protecting prisoners and jail staff who cannot socially distance themselves due to conditions in correction facilities.
According to TMZ’s entertainment website, Madonna’s Ray Of Light Foundation will provide the NGO with 100,000 masks to distribute to those in need.
The publication reported that thousands of masks have been assigned to the Cook County Jail and the Illinois Department of Corrections.
At least seven people died of coronavirus at the Illinois Department of Corrections.
