Headline: Steven Spielberg donates $25,000 to fundraiser for James Van Der Beek's family

Caption: Steven Spielberg has donated $25,000 to a fundraiser for James Van Der Beek's family in a poignant move. On Wednesday, a spokesperson announced that the Dawson's Creek actor had died "peacefully" at the age of 48 following a two-and-a-half-year battle with colorectal cancer. Shortly after the sad news, some of Van Der Beek's close friends launched a GoFundMe to help support his wife, Kimberly Van Der Beek, and their six children, as they are facing "significant financial strain". Among the high-profile names to donate to the fund were Spielberg and his wife, Kate Capshaw.
