All earnings and revenue from the publishing of her book will go to organizations sponsoring relief efforts for immigrant families.
Her current works written, are about the current times, speaking of justice, mercy, hope and love, bringing equality to all humanity.
This is not about politics, but our moral compass, who we should be as compassionate and kind human beings.
