An Ontario food bank is $15,000 richer thanks to local lad Justin Bieber and one well-placed Tweet.
The teen idol recently arranged for a hefty donation to the House of Blessing food bank in Stratford, Ont. during an interview on the U.S. entertainment magazine Access Hollywood. Host Billy Bush said he would donate $5,000 to the charity of Bieber's choice on condition that he call on his 13.8 million Twitter followers to also follow Bush.
All this follows a separate $10,000 donation the 17-year-old singer made to the food bank a few weeks ago.
"It's really exciting to hear Justin's thinking of Stratford again," said operations co-ordinator Laura Davies.
The food bank helps about 5,000 people per year around Stratford, a small town in southwestern Ontario where Bieber lived before hitting it big. Organizers expect that will go much easier because of the "Bieber bump."
Bieber is a "good man," Bush said later on Twitter. "Really solid, funny and shook every hand in the room. Class act."
