In the wake of the Orlando, Fla., shootings, actress Glenn Close donated $75,000 to the Mental Health Association of Central Florida during a gala at which she spoke last week.

The contribution will help fund counseling services for those impacted by tragic events in Orlando, the organization said.

Six-time Oscar nominee Close made the donation after serving as a keynote speaker at the annual Legacy of Champions Luncheon, where Orlando mayor Buddy Dyer was honored.
