It’s a brave new world, folks. If donating to important causes or supporting global crises (you know, being a good person) isn’t your thing, maybe you just need a bit of a push—from a hot naked person, of course. That’s exactly what Kaylen Ward, a model, is doing in her work as the “Naked Philanthropist.”
Kaylen, as the Naked Philanthropist, announced that she will send nudes to anyone who shows proof of donating funds ($10 or more) to aid Puerto Rico, which is still battling massive challenges after a string of hurricanes, the worst being a 6.4:
I’m sending nudes to every person who donates atleast $10 to any one of these fundraisers for the earthquakes in Puerto Rico. You must post your donation confirmation in the comments below. Let’s help save Puerto Rico. #PuertoRicoEarthquake pic.twitter.com/YdOPI3KBtw

People were excited to receive nudes while doing something for the good of the world. Surprisingly, her Twitter replies weren’t mega-creepy:
NAKED PHILANTHROPIST FOR PRESIDENT ✨

In fact, Kaylen had previously raised money—over $1 million, in fact—for the Australian wildfires before her attempts to help Puerto Rico by harnessing the “raw horny energy of the internet.”
Of course, as Business Insider says, this sort of philanthropy really isn’t anything new. Sex workers, influencers, (and video sites like PornHub) have done it before, too.
All the girls acting like I “stole” their idea for the nudes for charity are literally insane… neither them or I pioneered the idea of “charity porn”

Still, Kaylen definitely has found a way to make an impact, and people have lots to say about her approach:
Hedy Lamarr raised $25 million for WWII by selling kisses and the naked philanthropist raised $1 million for Australia by selling nudes. Women are so cool!! pic.twitter.com/e1zW7cTJ38

I wonder how many partners got pissed off when they saw that their significant other got nudes for donating to the Naked Philanthropist.
“Whose this bitch sending you nudes?!”
“Baby, baby, it’s for the Australia fires.”
“I don’t car–”
“Wow, I guess fuck the koalas, right?”

The Naked Philanthropist (aka girl who sold n00dz to raise money for the fires in Australia) is now doing the same thing for the earthquakes in Puerto Rico I-
Cmon ladies tits out for Mother Nature!!! we can’t wait for these crusty old white dudes in power to do something!!

the naked philanthropist raising a million dollars for australia while everyone attacks the military industrial complex and criticizes a costly war is one of the most prime examples of “if a naked girl can get thousands of likes how many can our troops get” that i’ve ever seen
— mate (@AlwaysAButt) January 10, 2020
that naked philanthropist girl raised 1 million dollars for the australian wildfires, gained like 200k followers, and also got rich from onlyfans all in about a week, the internet is so powerful we have to respect this queen

Kaylen Ward, @lilearthangelk, raised 1M by giving her product FOR FREE to anyone who donated $10, sacrificing her relationship to her family and jeopardizing her safety.
Amazon Australia donated .00059% of Jeff Bezos’ net worth and he got credit for it.
They are not the same. https://t.co/zfhcxSOWOV

Some people find her to be straight-up problematic, though:
If you’re going to defend the racist naked philanthropist when i remind you she’s racist please don’t talk to me. idc how long we’ve known each other. her raising money for the wildlife in australia doesn’t erase her racism

All of my vanilla friends are still stanning Kaylen Ward, “The Naked Philanthropist”. Ugh she’s problematic in so many ways but I don’t feel like educating the normies bc they’ll still overlook her blatant racism and constant posturing because she got dudes to donate

Naked philanthropist is doubling down on the racism by whining about “bullying” because people are trying to hold her accountable.
This is such a typical white person response. She and contrα would be great friends lol

Some people spoke out against the organizations Ward selected, though, and urged people to donate to grassroots organizations or to the people themselves—an important point:
THOSE ORGANIZATIONS ARE LARGELY CORRUPT AND HAVE LET PUERTO RICO DOWN IN THE PAST,
I SUGGEST YOU TAKE THIS DOWN AND REMAKE IT TO INCLUDE THESE LOCAL ORGS AND IF U NEED HELP W WHERE ELSE TO DONATE MY DMS ARE OPEN https://t.co/rVAKvLJ0pQ

Just saw someone donate $100 to one & these orgs literally Do Not give the places they say they will their $. I hate it here
Anyway, I’m redirecting funds for ppl in PR bc I am from there and a lot of PR cards aren’t compatible with Venmo/Cashapp
Here’s stuff I’ve done so far pic.twitter.com/kVipiLgZAS

yesss I love love love the intention and work being done I just wish so many of the donations weren’t going to the Red Cross specifically. They are hands down THE WORST
— RhymesⓋ (@notbrhymes) January 15, 2020
PLEASE DON’T DONATE TO THE GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATIONS THEY’LL STEAL THE MONEY, THERE ARE LOTS OF OTHER TRUSTWORTHY ORGANIZATIONS AROUND

In the end, we’re glad that people are donating money to worthwhile causes. Whatever the means.
