Liam Payne, the beloved One Direction star, recently passed away leaving his fans devastated. The 31-year-old singer fell from a third-floor balcony at his hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on Wednesday. As details of his last days emerged, it became clear that he spent his final days performing acts of kindness and generosity.
Despite his untimely death, Payne's legacy of kindness lives on through the various GoFundMe pages he donated to online. In a series of Snapchat videos, which he posted just hours before his passing, he expressed his deep sadness at seeing children suffer and urged his fans to donate to their causes. He shared that his son Bear, seven, was his inspiration for these acts of kindness, and he always wanted to be like a superhero, even though he couldn't fly, fix things, or have super strength.
Encouraging his fans to show compassion, Payne reminded them that every donation, big or small, could make a difference in a child's life. He also revealed that he spent his last few nights on GoFundMe, trying to finish off people's donations so that they could get the medical treatments they needed. He was shocked and saddened that in 2024, children still had to pay for medical treatments that would be free in his own country.
Payne's generosity extended to children all over the world, including a 28-year-old American man named Jack who received £2,300 for his stage 4 B-cell lymphoma. He also donated £3,833 to four-year-old Macy Shepard who was diagnosed with stage 2 Wilms tumour, £770 to a young girl injured in a shooting, and £2,223 to four-year-old Kailyn after a stroke. As footage of his charitable acts circulated on social media, fans praised him for being kind, lovely, and generous.
The singer was worth a staggering £46 million at the time of his death. In a previous interview, he revealed that he would be leaving all his wealth to his son Bear, whom he shares with ex-girlfriend Cheryl. He also declared Cheryl to be the best mother in the world and expressed his desire to protect his son as he grows up without his father.
Payne's charitable work was well-documented throughout his career. He participated in Soccer Aid for Unicef, a charity football match that raises money for children in war-torn and impoverished areas, for two years. During the Covid-19 pandemic, he funded over 360,000 meals for those in crisis, supporting more than 100 food banks in various cities. He also made a personal commitment to support food bank charity The Trussell Trust in the long term.
In addition to these efforts, Payne also visited Ghana for Comic Relief in 2013 and sold his old clothes to raise funds in 2021. His charitable acts have touched many lives and continue to inspire others to make a difference.
