Despite the fact The Keeping up With The Kardashian’s star and her famous sisters have been vocal in the past few weeks in raising awareness online about the ongoing bushfires that are raging throughout New South Wales and Victoria, fans weren’t impressed that Kim had made no mention of a donation.
“Nothing gets me more heated than to see the Kardashians/Jenners talk about climate change/wildfires & not donate even a penny,” one follower wrote.
In response, on January 7, Kim Tweeted: “Nothing gets me more heated than to see people think they know what we donated to and to think we have to publicize everything.”
Just hours later, Kath and Kim star Magda – who worked with the reality star last year on an Uber Eats ad – stuck up for Kim.
“FYI when I did the Uber eats ad w Kim I spoke to her on the phone (weeks before this current disaster ) & the VERY FIRST THING she asked me was how we were going with the bushfires,” she wrote.
“She was concerned, informed & compassionate. Many ppl donate their money and time quietly.”
Meanwhile, Kim’s sister Khloe Kardashian also hit back at claims she didn’t donate to the Australian bushfire fundraisers.
“Good deeds should be done with intention and not for attention. We are all blessed to be able to bless others even if it is in the slightest way,” the reality star said.
“We do not need to be boastful about that. Be boastful in regards to teaching others how they may be able to help as well.”
