Hollywood Actor Keanu Reeves Has Secretly Been Financing Countless Children's Hospitals

Famous actor Keanu Reeves may be one of the most underrated actors in Hollywood. Unlike most stars who have “made it,” Reeves continues to treat every individual he meets as an equal. Furthermore, he consistently goes out of his way to make a positive difference in the lives of others. For example, former co-workers claim he often brought them free breakfast during a movie shoot. And recently, it was revealed that Reeves has been silently funding a children’s hospital for years.

Reeves, who is best known for his roles in The Matrix, Bell and Ted, and Point Break, has had anything but an easy life. When he was just 3-years-old, his father abandoned the family. Growing up, the actor attended four different high schools. His dyslexia made school a constant struggle. For this reason, he dropped out of high school. Despite the setback, he is now a voracious reader. When Reeves was 23-years-old, his closest friend, River Phoenix, died of a drug overdose. Not long after, he met Jennifer Syme. The two fell in love and in 1999, Jennifer found out she was pregnant. But in her eighth month of pregnancy, the child was born stillborn. The couple was devastated by her death, eventually dissolving their relationship. Unfortunately, 18 months later, Syme was killed in a car accident.
