In January, the actor donated $12,000 to pay the funeral costs of a paparazzi photographer who died after being hit by a car while crossing a road to follow Justin Bieber's car. And the month before that, the wealthy star gave $75,000 to a little girl, who was battling an aggressive form of muscle tissue cancer known as Childhood Rhabdomyosarcoma. Charlie made the generous donation to help a 10-year-old girl called Jasmine after meeting her police officer father on Hermosa Beach in Los Angeles and hearing of her illness.
