At least Olivia Jade is working to make a difference with this move!
Lori Loughlin‘s youngest daughter was recently in the news for all the wrong reasons, going viral thanks to heavy online criticism after a particularly preachy social media post about her white privilege. But now, she’s quite literally putting her money where her mouth is, and we love to see it!

The 20-year-old YouTube vlogger, who of course rose to prominence thanks to her parents’ involvement in the college admissions scandal, participated in the “BLM Donation Challenge” on her Instagram account on Thursday afternoon. After her social media filter landed on the National Bail Out Fund, the makeup maven did her thing with a donation to the organization. (FYI the National Bail Out Fund is raising money to bail out Black Lives Matter protesters across the country; if you’re interested in contributing to their cause, you can do so HERE.)
As you can see (below), the one-time University of Southern California student proudly showed off her involvement in the challenge as well as her receipt after making a donation to the non-profit organization:
Nice! In addition to participating herself, Miz Giannulli tagged sister Bella Rose (obviously), BF Jackson Guthy, and friends Stassie Karanikolaou, Charley Borquez, and Kaysan to help further spread the challenge, and the impact of a nationwide string of donations.
Not even gonna lie: it’s nice to see OJ actually doing something about her abundant white privilege instead of just mindlessly posting to Instagram about it. Sure, it’s a small step forward, but it’s progress all the same — and now she can say she’s affecting change in the world in her own small way. We’ve all got to start somewhere, after all!
