Russell Wilson, Ciara to donate 1 million meals to help Seattle food banks amid coronavirus outbreak

In a one-minute video posted to Twitter Tuesday night, Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson announced that he and his wife, entertainer Ciara, will donate one million meals to local food banks through the Feeding America nationwide network to help those suffering due to the novel coronavirus outbreak.

In a tone fittingly more somber than his usual enthusiasm, Wilson noted that the outbreak is “changing the world second by second, minute by minute” and noted all the friends the couple knows who are losing jobs or encountering other issues at places they have deep associations with such as Alaska Airlines, the Seattle Sounders soccer team and Seattle Children’s Hospital.
