Wow, what a story. โค๏ธ
He died in his sleep from cardiac arrest at the age of 53, on December 25, 2016.
Hundreds of thousands of people are still alive thanks to him.
Only after the singer's death did it become known that he had spent millions to help orphans, the homeless, the sick, and foreigners in need.
One time, a contestant on the TV show "The Deal" said during the break that she needed $15,000 for an invitro procedure.
The next day, George Michael called and secretly transferred the entire amount to her name.
โGeorge Michael worked anonymously at a homeless shelter where I volunteered,โ one TV presenter said. โI didn't tell anyone this because he asked us not to tell anyone. That's who he used to be."
"A woman at a children's charity told me the only reason they're still around is because of George Michael,โ one friend said.
Kate Vogue: "Every Easter when Chris Tarrant and I hosted the 'Capital FM' children's charity event, George Michael would turn up at 3.30am and donate $100,000."
One time, he gave $25,000 to an unknown woman in a cafe because cried because of the debt.
He wrote a check and asked the waitress to give it to the woman after she left."
At one point, he organized a free concert for the nurses who took care of his late mother.
He has passed on, but his millions saved hundreds of thousands of children.

I just went to Cobham to get my kids some toys and went into a shop called @Farrants_Cobham
There is a MASSIVE picture that is pride of place at the point of payment. It is an image of black men, broken black men at a tobacco plantation with their overseers next to them?!?! I kid you not!
This is in a family store, this imagery is massive triggering and racist. And there is no conceivable reason it should be there! Iโm so thankful I wasnโt with my girls.
How on earth could anyone have shopped there and found that image acceptable.
This is exhausting and damaging to many people.
BREAKING ๐จ๐จ | In a MAJOR defeat for this government, the High Court has ruled that new agency worker regulations are UNLAWFUL.
We took this government to court.
And we won.
