Mindy Kaling Celebrates Her 40th By Donating to 40 Charities

Just when we thought we couldn't love her anymore, she goes and does THIS:

That's right, Mindy Kaling just turned 40 and she's marking the occasion by donating US$1000 to 40 different charities.

Which causes is she pledging to help exactly? Well, she turned to the Twitterverse for some inspiration, and the Twitterverse delivered:

There's The Pad Project which provides sanitary items to women in need and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to help search for a cure. There's Seth Rogen's foundation Hilarity for Charity which provides support for people with Alzheimers and the Down Syndrome Association of Wisconsin. There's the End Rape On Campus organisation which supports survivors of sexual violence and The Nature Conservancy which has environmental projects in 72 countries. There's The Trevor Project which focuses on suicide prevention amongst LGBTQ youth and Together We Rise which supports foster care programs.

You did good Mindy. Please do this again for your 50th.
