Alyssa Milano's GoFundMe Campaign for Son's Baseball Team Sparks Controversy

Despite Her Reported $10 Million Net Worth, Actress Defends Fundraising Effort Amid Backlash

Alyssa Milano, a television star and producer, has sparked controversy by starting a GoFundMe campaign to raise $10,000 for her son's baseball team's trip to Cooperstown, New York.
Despite Milano's reported net worth of $10 million and her recent sighting in a $200,000 electric Porsche, the actress defended her decision, stating she has previously paid for team uniforms, sponsored kids who couldn't afford dues, and that the kids also fundraise themselves.
The GoFundMe campaign has already surpassed its goal, raising over $11,000, but not without backlash from social media users, some of whom donated under mocking names.
Milano's husband, David Bugliari, is a top executive at talent agency Creative Artists Agency (CAA), further fueling criticisms of the fundraising effort.
Milano's actions have been criticized as emblematic of a larger issue of wealthy individuals expecting others to foot the bill for their expenses.
