Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo has been named the most charitable athlete in the world by DoSomething.org, per Look to the Stars.

The winners are selected as a result of a three-part process: votes and nominations from the public, the athlete’s influence on social media and suggestions from a committee of DoSomething.org that takes in the impact the athletes have. 

The report highlights Ronaldo's impact, including donating more than $80,000 to a 10-year-old fan who needed brain surgery, giving $165,000 to fund a cancer center in Portugal that treated his mother and raising awareness on various topics, including hunger.
