In the wake of the devastation caused by Hurricane Maria over the past two weeks, Bethenny traveled to Puerto Rico to help out — and brought FOUR private planes filled with supplies and EMTs along for the ride.
The chartered planes were filled with 20,000 pounds of goods —
including food, water, medical supplies, insulin, diapers, and gift cards. Once landed, Bethenny helped distribute the supplies to local communities in need.
In a video posted to Instagram, the reality star noted how dire the situation in Puerto Rico is, and shot back at reports that victims were receiving all the help they need.
Oh, and PS: Once all the supplies had been given out, Bethenny loaded up those planes with cancer patients and other people needing medical attention, and flew them back to the continental US for treatment.
Bethenny paid for the mission through a combination of her own money and donations to her charity, B Strong. She's still accepting donations for relief efforts here.
