All of the Charities the Stars are Playing For on I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here 2022
I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here Australia has returned and we just can’t seem to get enough. The latest season features plenty of twists and turns and of course, moments that will make you squirm, but at the end of the day, the contestants put themselves through the wringer to give back to society.
With $100,000 up for grabs, each celebrity is playing on behalf of a charity and we’re sure whichever organisation ends up with the prize will put it to good use.
From Poh Ling Yeow to Maria Thattil, a number of familiar faces have volunteered to make their way into the so-called jungle, and we’re just going to say, they’re a lot braver than us.
The reality TV show is known for its gruesome challenges that make your skin crawl, and as we watch from the comfort of our homes, we can’t imagine what it’s like to actually face the tasks head-on.
This year, I’m a Celeb deals with intruders and also a contestant who isn’t actually famous but is tasked with the challenge of convincing everyone he is. It’s fun, exciting and we can’t wait to see what happens next.
But let’s look into the charities the contestants are playing for.
