It's hard to imagine what you would do with the kind of money that celebrities seem to have, but one thing that most people agree on is using some of the money to give back to impoverished and less fortunate communities, which is exactly what Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos have done.

Not only is their relationship super sweet and super hilarious, they're also incredibly generous and love to give back, which is the most important thing a celebrity can do with their wealth and influence (at least in my opinion.)
Kelly and Mark just announced that they've donated to the New York Win Scholarship Fund so that twenty college-bound students will receive $2000 and a laptop.

"Mark and I are so excited to help these students in whatever small way we can," Kelly said. "Starting college is a pivotal moment for so many and being a part of this time is really special for our family. "
"We know each of these scholarship recipients has a bright future ahead and we can't wait to see what amazing things they accomplish!"

Christine C. Quinn, Win's president and CEO, stated that "Thanks to their generous donation, these students no longer have to worry about buying books or paying for a ride home, and can focus on what's the most important: succeeding in their studies,"
What an amazing move from Kelly and Mark!
