Ya'll @KyrieIrving just got me to my year end goal on the filter fund with his surprise donation. If 4 other celebrities would match his donation we would be at my $1M goal for my filter fund. Who wants to step up for this kid from Flint?

On the GoFundMe page, Copeny writes that her community has been without clean water since April 2014 and that they are still recovering.

Yeah…it seems like it. Which is kind of on brand for Kyrie. When he got in trouble for sharing the anti-Semitic video, there was a consensus that he likely didn’t even watch the video based on his comments.

This is probably similar. Kyrie remembers this being a huge issue years ago, but hasn’t really paid much attention since.
