Morgan Freeman: What You Don’t Know About The Beloved Actor

Charitable Ventures

After Hurricane Ivan devastated Grenada, an island in the Caribbean, Morgan Freeman knew he had to do something. Together with others in 2004, he founded a special nonprofit called the Grenada Relief fund to help those affected by the natural disaster. Eventually, the fund turned into the organization called PLANIT NOW.

PLANIT has shifted the group’s initial focus by casting a wider net. Now, the nonprofit helps people prepare with resources for hurricanes and other severe storms, as well as helping those affected by storms afterwards.
