F*ck Cancer is the charity he’s supporting, and it’s a cause very close to his heart. “My mom was going through chemotherapy in April of 2012 and she and I just took a photo outside of a bar in Toronto when I was visiting,” he told The Hollywood Reporter. “I was just giving the middle finger to the camera — representing ‘f*ck cancer’. At the time, I didn’t know there was a charity called F*ck Cancer. They got in touch via Twitter and we’ve been working together ever since.” Through online charity website Represent, Amell has already sold over 6,000 t-shirts to support the cause, which is all about encouraging young people to engage with charity work, and supporting those affected by the disease.
