The majority of celebrities try their best to give back to the society they live in, in any way they can. Some donate their wealth, others their time, while some try to combine those two.

Recently, on her Instagram story, she acknowledged St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital’s attempt to spread awareness about childhood cancer. The post announced that “September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month” and encouraged people to donate to research.
