Rihanna has donated $1.75 million to a hospital in her native Barbados.
E! News reports that the singer made the sizable donation in memory of her late grandmother Clara “Dolly” Braithwaite, who passed from cancer in June.
The donation will lead the radiotherapy department at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Bridgetown to be renamed the Clara Braithwaite Centre for Oncology and Nuclear Medicine.
“This was my way of giving back to Barbados, in a form of philanthropy, by assisting the QEH in its continued modernization program,” said Rihanna in a statement. “I believe that this will have a huge impact on the people of Barbados. This was all done to save lives or at least extend them.”

$1.75 Million is a lot of money compared to most famous people you hear about giving a few hundred grand

WHY DOES IT MATTER WHERE YOU DONATE?? YALL THAT ARE BITCHING, HAVE NEVER DONATED SHIT ANYWAY!!
AND 1.75 MILL IS A LOT!! WHEN’S THE LAST TIME YOU HEARD AN URBAN ARTIST DONATE THAT MUCH??
“because shes taking care of home first. Barbados is her HOME”
So she can make all her money here, but send it over there? Ok.
What makes you think she makes all of her money here? She makes most of her money internationally.
Are you a fucking piece of shit? Why in the fucking fuck does Rihanna have to donate to the fucking U.S.? What the fuck? Who the fuck do you think you are, fucking piece of shit troll. 🙂
“why cant your rich and powerfull goverment do it?”
