The charity foundation of 20-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer called the Roger Federer Foundation, has made yet another generous contribution for a good cause. The foundation has pledged US$1 million to provide nutritious meals for 64,000 disadvantaged children and their families in Africa, even as schools remain closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In this regard, Roger Federer himself re-tweeted a post from the foundation, highlighting the importance of helping out the underprivileged during a time of crisis.
