Leonardo DiCaprio’s Earth Alliance environmental organization will donate $3M to help wildfire relief efforts in Australia
The foundation said Thursday that it has started the Australia Wildfire Fund to help with an “international response to the catastrophic bushfires” currently raging in the country.
