#CantDoNothing

Actress Milana Vayntrub is know for her work as the helpful AT&T store rep in the phone company's ubiquitous commercials.

 

She's also a refugee. She and her family, who are Jewish, fled the Soviet Union in the 1980s because of religious persecution. She was just three at the time.

As a refugee, Vayntrub was particularly effected by the plight of Syrian refugees in Europe. And she decided to do something about it. She founded #CantDoNothing.

In her own words, here's Vayntrub explaining #CantDoNothing
