Sharapova donates almost $40,00 to Russian orphanage

Even if Maria Sharapova is extremely focussed on staging a successful comeback after her controversial ban, the Russian beauty doesn’t forget to give back.

Maria has just donated over 2.28 million rubles ($39,400) to orphanages in Russia. It was Maria to post a pic on Facebook about her presenting the check with Yang Seok, President and CEO of LOTTE. Maria explained how she allocated the money to charities.

“With Mr. Yang Seok, President and CEO of LOTTE RUS, presenting the charity donation project: a portion of the sales received from Sugarpova products sold at the mini-bar of Lotte Hotel Moscow to support orphanages in Russia.”

Fantastic stuff!
