1. He Gives Back to his Community, and the Rest of the World
One of the most charitable athletes in the world has to be Cristiano Ronaldo. Following the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, a boy was shown on television wearing a Ronaldo jersey. His family was killed, and Ronaldo responded to the tragedy by visiting the kid in Indonesia, helping to raise funds to ameliorate the situation. He has given millions of euros back to charities in Madeira, and he played a charity match in support of the 2010 Madeira flood.
CR7 also helped a boy with terminal cancer get treatment, while also fighting against HIV, drug addiction, child hunger, Ebola, obesity and many other causes. He is constantly working, constantly battling to help those in need without forgetting where he comes from. Whether it be charitable donations, personal visits to victims of natural disasters or charity matches in his hometown, Cristiano Ronaldo is constantly looking for new and creative ways to make the world a better place, and there is plenty we can all learn from him.
