Carell added that if anyone had already paid for their prom tickets, Alice’s Kids would reimburse them. “It’s a pretty good deal,” he said in his iconic deadpan attitude. “Have fun, enjoy the prom and remember, this is Steve Carell.”
According to the Associated Press, Alice’s Kids will donate about $175,000 for more than 800 fire victim students’ prom tickets, ranging from $100 to $150 each. A Virginia-based organization, Alice’s Kids supports school children across the US by paying for field trips, prom tickets, summer camps, instrument rentals and more for those who may not be able to afford it.
Carell’s announcement is reminiscent of the actor’s The Office storyline

Best known for playing Michael Scott on NBC’s The Office, fans noticed a similarity between the announcement and a “cringe-worthy” storyline from one episode of the sitcom. Years ago in the series, Scott promised a group of young students that he would pay for their college tuition, believing he would have the funds by the time they became seniors.
However, when the time came, he lacked the funds and ultimately backed out, offering them free laptop batteries instead. Unlike Scott, who failed to deliver his promise, Carell is ready to make a real-life impact with his announcement.
