Bethenny Frankel is going to great lengths to aid Puerto Rico.

The “Real Housewives of New York City” star is volunteering in the territory’s capital city of San Juan. Frankel, 46, has been distributing supplies to citizens with the help of four planes that she chartered.

In fact, the reality television personality even paid for one of the charter planes out of her own pocket! Frankel and her team are currently working to charter in a fifth plane.

Not only are they distributing supplies, but the group are also transporting citizens in need of urgent medical attention.
