David and Victoria Beckham have personally donated” R20 million to help people in Ukraine.
The former England captain launched 7: The David Beckham UNICEF Fund Emergency Appeal on Tuesday to help people on the ground in the country following the invasion ordered by the Russian President Vladimir Putin last month and it’s been revealed he and his wife kicked off the fundraiser with a hefty sum on behalf of their family.

A source told The Sun newspaper: “David and Victoria wanted to do everything they could to help UNICEF and their Emergency Appeal.

They personally donated £1million (R20 million) to the fund and hope they inspire others to help out in any way they can. Mothers forced to flee with their children. Familes torn apart.

Children pulled from their beds to become refugees overnight. With my family safe around me, I felt the helplessness we all share when faced with scenes of such despair.
