**Rihanna's** foundation has [already donated $5 million](https://celebritykind.ghost.io/rihannas-foundation-donates-5-million-to-coronavirus-response-efforts/) to support coronavirus relief efforts around the world. Now, the **Clara Lionel Foundation** (named after RiRi's grandparents) has announced a joint funding effort with Twitter chief **Jack Dorsey** to support survivors of domestic violence during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Together, they are donating US $4.2 million to the Mayor's Fund for Los Angeles.

According to a statement from the **Clara Lionel Foundation**, this money will be used "to provide 10 weeks of support for victims of domestic abuse including shelter, meals and counselling for individuals and their children."

"The Los Angeles Housing Authority has determined that dozens of individuals (and their children, in many cases) are being turned away from at-capacity domestic violence shelters every week as incidents have been on the rise since the Safer at Home Order was issued in March."

Earlier this week, **Dorsey** announced he would be donating US $1 billion to coronavirus relief efforts.
