Instagram has reportedly deactivated the account of a nude model attempting to get people to donate money to relief efforts in Australia.

Kaylen Ward, who calls herself The Naked Philanthropist, has raised “hundreds of thousands” of dollars in donations in exchange for nudes, according to a report published Sunday by Buzzfeed News.

“I was seeing all the posts on Twitter about the Australian fires and I was really concerned there wasn’t a lot of media coverage and not a lot of people donating,” Ward told Buzzfeed News.

Ward decided to sell her nudes on Twitter to help raise money for the fire relief. She already sells nudes online, so she decided to sell them for charity instead.

“I’m sending nudes to every person who donates atleast $10 to any one of these fundraisers for the wildfires in Australia,” she tweeted Friday. “Every $10 you donate = one nude picture from me to your DM. You must send me confirmation that you donated.” (RELATED: Instagram Model Interrupts Champions League Final Soccer Match By Streaking Across Field)

The tweet blew up, receiving over 70,000 retweets at the time this article was published.

“I was expecting to raise maybe $1,000 but the tweet blew up,” she added.

Ward claimed she had raised over $500,ooo by Sunday and had hired a small group of people to go through DMs and verify donation confirmations with her.


Just a day after her tweet went viral on Twitter, Instagram deactivated her account citing violation of user guidelines and posting of “sexually suggestive content.” Ward, however, claimed she wasn’t working off Instagram, and only selling nudes on Twitter.


Since her Instagram account was deleted, several fake accounts of The Naked Philanthropist have popped up and Ward has verified they are not linked to her on her Twitter account.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
