Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds has officially taken over the industry as a world-renowned actor, entrepreneur, businessman, and philanthropist. Along with moving on with his movies at full pace, the actor also had myriad business deals pouring in from all sides. Be it his Welsh football club, Wrexham or the mint mobile deals, Reynolds has it all. Nonetheless, despite having scaled peaks of prosperity, he is firmly rooted in his core values, such as empathy and compassion, for those in need. 

Through his well-known football team, Wrexham AFC, the star, is determined to lend his support to a devastated family. The family suffered a tragic blow as they lost their 19-year-old son, Noah Brown. He was apparently one of the youngest supporters of Reynolds’ football team and his death has deeply saddened the star. 

However, to help in all the ways he can, the star took to his social media to call for a fundraising initiative that would help families as such to have their members effectively treated in the best possible ways. The message on the trust’s homepage reads that the organization, which has been funding the treatment of those in need, made Noah’s life a little better than a usual cancer patient’s, awaiting his death. 

He died in the fall of 2022, exactly 18 months after his initial diagnosis. Nonetheless, in those 18 months, the 19-year-old fought the disease with the utmost bravery and strength to live as long as possible. He was reportedly under treatment in Ward 94 at St. James’ where received the best ever treatment he could for the deadly disease. Promoting the same is the Hollywood A-lister to help the trust create more awareness of their work. 

Charities and Donations for Cancer by Ryan Reynolds 

However, this is not the first time the actor has invested in or is calling for support for this fatal disease. Spreading awareness on his own, the actor went public with a short documentary about him as a cancer patient. He got his colonoscopy done, thereby spreading the message that early screening and diagnosis can actually save someone’s life. 

Back in 2022, partnered with his all-time friend and Wrexham Co-owner Rob McElhenney for a noble cause. They together made a generous €5000 donation to a family of another teenage Halifax fan. However, unfortunately, the patient reportedly died of brain cancer.
