Kim Kardashian is giving back.
The Kourtney and Kim Take New York reality star recently donated the $50,000 she raised during a September 2011 fundraiser to The Trevor Project, an organization that provides suicide prevention services to LGBT teens.
Kardashian, 31, raised the funds during a trip to the Cantor Fitzgerald offices in New York City, where she was put to work on the trading floor.

"The firm lost more than 600 employees in the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001 and on the 10th anniversary of the attacks, they donated all revenues from their trades to charities around the world," she wrote on her blog at the time. "I was honored to take part!"

2It wasn't money she earned. It says she had a fundraiser and raised the funds that way. So it was other people's money that she donated (which is ok since it was a fundraiser). The title is very misleading. For it to truly be her money she would had to have taken it out of her own funds. DUH!!!!
It's nice that Kim Kardashian donate 50K of her millions of dollars she earns every year but Adam Lambert's fans collectively donated their own money on behalf of Adam. There is a difference.
