NEW YORK – Ellen DeGeneres was left emotional after actor and investor Ashton Kutcher surprised the talk show host with a $4 million donation to the Ellen DeGeneres Wildlife Fund. Kutcher made the donation on behalf of a tech company called Ripple, of which he and his business partner, Guy Oseary, are investors.
Ellen usually surprises guests at her show. However, this time it was her who was left teary eyed.

The organisation “was established to support global conservation efforts for critically endangered species,” according to its website.
The fund works to “permanently secure the future of wild gorillas in Rwanda by building on successful field conservation efforts, while empowering the people living near the gorillas to thrive in relationship to their own ecosystem”.
