Kristen Bell has donated $91,500 worth of baby supplies to pregnant women.
The pregnant actress – who has 20-month-old daughter Lincoln with husband Dax Shepard and is expecting their second child – admitted giving out nursing bras and breast pumps to those in need was a "huge priority" in her life.

She said in a statement: "I understand the importance of having the essential tools necessary to provide for a newborn. Greater still, I am aware of the immeasurable value of having support systems in place to ensure success on this journey of motherhood.
"Anything I can offer in support and care to new moms in need remains a huge priority to me."
The 'Frozen' star recently admitted she and Dax, 39, have been a lot more relaxed during her second pregnancy and insisted it is "not overly stressful" looking after a newborn.
She said: "There's been zero nursery prep... we're just going to push it around in a bassinet. Caring for a newborn is pretty stressful, but not overly so - just feed it and keep it clean."
Kristen has been kept busy during her pregnancy by teaching Lincoln sign language, and revealed the youngster, who she has dubbed the "smartest baby ever", already knows "40-50 signs".
The 'Veronica Mars' star explained: "She signs a lot, which is nice. There's a lot of research to suggest that they will be happier if they can communicate before their verbal scores are developed.
"There's a time when they can understand everything you're saying but their verbal scores don't exist."
"I can talk to her and she'll sign in three, four word sentences which is really amazing. She'll come in the kitchen and be like [signing] 'More crackers please!' And I'm like, 'Yes, okay!' "
