How much of that 'giving' was actually his own money? It's admirable that he's done so much to help but I feel it's wrong to put him at the top of that list when it's other people's money he's been giving.

Where's Captain Tom? He 'gave' over £20m to the NHS.

What do you mean by “his own money”? Surely Captain Tom was raising other people’s money not his own?

Rashford could happily just chill out with his millions and give a cursory nod towards issues. But he hasn’t. He’s called out the government many times and won. He’s made huge change for the young people in this country that don’t have a voice.

We shouldn’t question people like Rashford making a difference, we should laud them.

Doesn’t matter because the lad dared to get a few sponsorship deals.

How can you give away 125% are they saying he has given away every penny he has and more on top?

Just to be clear: it is very important to target the young black kid here versus the Lady Crapface of Fukcton who married a billionaire.

Outstanding fella. Anyone who says different is an idiot, an absolute knuckle dragging idiot.

There’s lies, damn lies and statistics.

A person can’t give more than 100% of their wealth

Impossible statistic by an uninformed journalist (unless it was a deliberate and cynical number that was trying to cast him in a bad light because he had the audacity to team up with corporate sponsors to help feed those in need). But good on him for trying to help the hungry, no matter the media portrayal.

Marcus Rashford tops The Sunday Times Giving List 2021

He pricked the conscience of a nation and forced the government to address the issue of food poverty among the poorest and most vulnerable children as the Covid

"The list ranks philanthropists by setting the charitable sums given or raised against their net worth in the Rich List. While Rashford has donated cash, it is his role in inspiring others to give to FareShare (the food charity for which he is an ambassador) that carries him to the top of this year’s Giving List."
