Gwen Stefani Gives Back to Wildfire Victims

Jimmy

12th December 2007

I just love it when celebs give back simply out of the goodness of their heart.

Gwen Stefani has decided to start a college-scholarship fund for students affected by this falls California wildfires. "When I heard about the devastation of the fires, at first I felt I should cancel my [San Diego] show out of respect," Gwen said in a statement. "But then it occurred to me there might be a more useful solution."

And, voila! -- the Gwen Stefani After-the-Fires Scholarship appears, which will benefit students who lost their homes or sources of income in the fires.

In addition to creating the fund, Gwen donated about $160,000 in proceeds from her Oct. 30 concert in San Diego to the San Diego Foundation fire-relief fund.

Shes a good egg.
