Clint Eastwood Donates $5K to Petaluma Nonprofit

Now this is cool.

Clint Eastwood and his wife Dina Ruiz Eastwood have donated $5,000 to Petaluma Bounty, a community organization that runs a farm on Shasta Avenue along with programs to supply needy families with nutritious food and trains young people about permaculture, the Press Democrat is reporting.

Eastwood, who lives in Carmel, learned about the organization through his wife who is related by marriage to Petaluma resident Judy Collins. Collins started the Petaluma Farmers' Market and is involved with Petaluma Bounty.

“We're thrilled to receive this very generous grant from Clint and Dina Eastwood and very grateful to Judy for her efforts in bringing Petaluma Bounty to their attention,” Dave Martinelli, president of Petaluma Bounty, told the Press Democrat.

Eastwood is one of Hollywood's most known actors and directors and has been hailed for his work in films such as "Million Dollar Baby", "Gran Torino" and "Mystic River."
