Kanye West and Kim Kardashian have been in their charitable bag recently. While Kanye dropped $200K in donations towards Chicago Mayoral candidate Amara Eniya, who received a co-sign from Chance The Rapper, that isn't the only large donation Ye's made in recent times. The rapper, and his wife, also donated $500K towards the California wildfire relief and he also donated $150K to the family of Jemel Roberson, a security guard who was shot and killed by police. Now, the artist and his wife have donated $25K to their personal photographer who was injured in a car crash.

p>According to TMZ, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian dropped $25K to help the family of their personal photographer Marcus Hyde who was severely injured in a car crash last month. The photographer has worked 'Ye and Kim around the globe. Hyde's car went over the side of a ravine in Malibu in October, suffering serious head injuries.

Hyde's still in the hospital fighting for his life. A GoFundMe was launched to help him and his family with the medical costs. KimYe donated $25K to the GoFundMe page earlier today. They decided to make their donation public in order to bring more awareness to the page. The GoFundMe's original goal was $10K so an additional $15K will help Hyde and his family out a lot during this tough time.

Hyde recently traveled with both Kim Kardashian and Kanye West as their personal photographer. He was next to Kanye throughout the Ye listening party in Wyoming and also shot photos of the Kardashian-Jenner sisters' Victoria Secret angel Halloween costumes.
