Bethenny Frankel Fills Four Planes With Supplies To Send To Hurricane Maria Victims In Puerto Rico

Bethenny Frankel is doing her part
to help the victims of Hurricane Maria!

“The Real Housewives of New York” star chartered
four planes full of supplies to send down to Puerto Rico help those in need
after Hurricane Maria left the island completely devastated. Bethenny revealed
she will also be using the planes to fly back victims who need medical
attention. They will get care in the United States. 

Bethenny
partnered with B Strong in order to send necessities
over to Puerto Rico. On the website, Bethenny says,
“My B Strong program for women and their families in crisis is
working with the national disaster relief charity Delivering Good to provide
people affected by the recent hurricanes with much-needed gift cards, bank
cards and critical supplies.”

On her Instagram, she shared the
facility that is packing everything up to be flown over to Puerto Rico, saying, “Here we are at our headquarters organizing and loading the
truck for the planes heading to PR from Miami, Fort Lauderdale and NYC. Filling
3 planes with supplies, suitcases full of cash cards, pediatric supplies,
insulin, hygiene products, medics, non perishable food, Rescue Warrior nurses,
EMTs, combat medics. We will return these planes full of PR cancer patients,
diabetics and people that are dying. Please donate to bstrongdelivergood.org to
help me with these efforts.”

She also gave us an inside look at all the
volunteers who are donating their time for this cause. 

The planes that are flying to the
island are filled with 20,000 pounds of supplies such as water, canned goods, diapers, baby food, medical supplies, toys, meals and 2,000 pounds in
meals from Feeding America and City Harvest along with $50,000 in gift cards
and cash and $25,000 in Costco gift cards.

This comes weeks after Bethenny took
a trip to Mexico City to help the victims of the horrifying 7.1 earthquake that
occurred last month. When she got to Mexico City, she went to stores to buy
medical supplies, feminine hygiene products and thousands of dollars worth of
gift cards.

The Instagram video shows Bethenny trying to console some of the
victims of the earthquake. She captioned the video, “There
are no words.”
