The campaign, with a $175,000 goal, is for Moore's brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Griffin and Kit Goldsmith, who were expecting a baby in a few weeks.
Moore's post was met with comments questioning why a multimillionaire needed donations, with some suggesting she could cover the full amount herself. Moore responded, stating that her own home was also damaged and that people should be more empathetic. She emphasized that the GoFundMe was set up by a friend and that she and her husband were supporting their family. The GoFundMe describes the Goldsmiths' loss, including Griffin's music equipment, and highlights the couple's difficult situation. Moore also shared her own experience, mentioning that she and her family lost most of their belongings in the fire. The incident sparked discussions about financial assistance during disasters and the role of public figures in fundraising efforts
