  • A mother of triplet boys and a daughter asked for donations to stop her family from losing their home
  • She said her husband died from COVID-19 and she lost her job as a result of pandemic layoffs
  • Kim Kardashian didn't mean to post her name and wanted to donate anonymously, a report says

Kim Kardashian quietly made a donation to a family in need, a report says.

The "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" alum reportedly donated $3,000 to the GoFundMe page of Angelia Cantrell, the mother of triplet boys and a daughter. Cantrell was asking for donations to stop her family from losing their home after her husband died from COVID-19 and she lost her job due to the pandemic.

"Throughout, this time, unfortunately, our bills have fallen behind, after only being able to make the minimum payments," Cantrell wrote on the campaign page. "I’ve been to several organizations and no one has funding at this time."

According to Cantrell, she was able to pay their delinquent rent thanks to the donations she has received so far through GoFundMe. However, when she set her campaign goal, she only estimated their needs at the time. She decided to increase her goal after receiving the $3,000 she initially asked for in order to catch up on the utility bills and other bills that are "extremely behind."

"I’m praying and believing that God will get us through this and will send us an angel! Thank you for taking your time to view our story," Cantrell concluded.

The donations list revealed that "Kim Kardashian West" gave Cantrell $3,000, which was the top donation. Multiple sources confirmed to Page Six that the donation was made by the Skims founder.

Another source said that Kardashian had wanted to keep the donation anonymous and didn't mean to post her name.

"Kim did donate. She meant to do it anonymously and she gave the full amount the mother was asking for when she posted it, which was $3,000," one of the unnamed sources told the outlet.

Kardashian has been helping various families and organizations amid the pandemic. In March 2020, her company Skims announced it would donate $1 million to families affected by COVID-19.

In December last year, she also pledged to give $500 to 1,000 lucky people in the hopes of easing their worries over the holidays.

"Hey guys! It’s the most wonderful time of the year. I know 2020 has been really hard and people are struggling, worried about how they’re going to pay rent, put food on the table, or a gift under the tree for their kids," Kardashian tweeted at the time.
