(KYMA, KECY)-Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey donates $25 million to San Francisco's undocumented residents and to inmates.

FOX KTVU reports Mayor of San Francisco, London N. Breed says Dorsey donated $15 million to the Give2SF COVID-19 Response and Recovery Fund.

The money will go help undocumented, mixed-status, and low-income households in San Francisco: $5 million will go toward food security, $5 million to housing access, and $5 million to support workers and small businesses.

Breed said that Dorsey's donation more than doubles the total contributions to Give2SF and brings the total funding to $26.3 million.

“COVID-19 affects us all, but disproportionately affects those who were already in need,” Dorsey said in a statement. “It’s important to acknowledge this fact and provide more support to those who are struggling. Food and shelter to weather this crisis is critical, and I want to thank the Mayor and City of San Francisco for ensuring these funds will help people directly and immediately.”
