The Fresh Air Fund is a New York-based organization that gives children from low-income communities the opportunity to experience outdoor summer adventures that unlock their limitless potential. Clune's donation will help provide these life changing programs for thousands of New York City children.

The Battle Buddy Foundation was founded by combat veterans with the combined mission of assisting veterans, of all eras, in the acquisition of service dogs, while providing a network of peer support and activity, and promoting education and awareness of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), the current veteran suicide epidemic, and the life-saving benefits of highly trained service dogs.

Los Angeles Regional Food Bank fights hunger and food insecurity within the Los Angeles area by acquiring food and distributing it to those in need through local charitable organizations.

Clune's donation will be used to provide 10,000 meals to Los Angeles residents who need assistance putting food on the table for their families.
