Trump revealed in a Facebook post on April 20 the establishment of the Ivanka M. Trump Charitable Fund, which will receive the unpaid portion of her advance and future royalties received from the book, titled Women Who Work: Rewriting the Rules of Success.

The National Urban League and Boys & Girls Clubs of America will be the first two beneficiaries of the fund, receiving $100,000 each.

“With my grant to the National Urban League, the organization will launch a new Women’s Initiative as part of its signature Entrepreneurship Center Program, which currently operates at 13 locations across the country,” Trump shared on Facebook.

“The Women’s Initiative will focus on giving women the mentorship and tools they need to start and grow successful businesses and achieve economic self-sufficiency,” she added.

Trump went on to share her plan for assisting in the STEM program and STEM Centers for Innovation within the Boys & Girls Club, with an aim to help females interested in careers in those that field.

“The grant to Boys & Girls Clubs of America will go toward the organization’s national Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) program for girls and underrepresented youth.

“Women make up half of the total U.S. college-educated workforce, but less than one-third of the STEM workforce,” she wrote.

Trump who recently made headlines while on a women empowerment tour in Germany, made it clear in the post that her book was a “personal project” and “completed before the election in November.” She closed her post by reiterating the pride in her book and her desire to see it help others.

“It is my sincere hope that Women Who Work serves as a powerful resource and that the book proceeds further benefit women and girls through the great work of the National Urban League and Boys & Girls Clubs of America,” she wrote.

Run by the UK non-profit organization Comic Relief Inc., Red Nose Day USA is a campaign that recently spent an entire day raising funds for children in need. The focus of the day is to start by bringing happiness and laughter to those kids, and from there, create awareness that turns into donations to the cause.

The entire event was then broadcasted as a three-hour entertainment special on NBC, bringing in some of Hollywood’s top talent in singers, actors and comedians to encourage people to donate. All over the country, people went to their local Walgreens to buy little red noses and vendor partner products and then donated during the NBC special. Donations were spread between 12 different charities that help children in poverty, including Boys & Girls Clubs, Children’s Health Fund, National Council of La Raza, National Urban League, Save the Children, Oxfam America and more.

Now a little over six months after the event, the Red Nose Day Campaign is pleased to announce that they have raised over $23 million to help those in need! This money has been spread across all 50 states of the United States as well as 15 international countries. Even further, Red Nose Day helped to serve almost eight million meals to children in the U.S. through food banks.

You may remember the Coldplay musical with the cast of Game of Thrones and some of the comedy skits by Reese Witherspoon and Gwen Stefani, and other A-list celebrities.

But Red Nose Day is about more than just food. The funds raised also helped to educate over 200,000 American children to reading level and provided essential health care for 50,000 children and their families. And that’s just in the United States!

Internationally, funds raised from Red Nose Day supplied more than 170,000 essential and life-saving vaccinations to children in Africa and delivered clean water to over 30,000 children and their families all across Africa.

Richard Curtis, co-founder of Red Nose Day, was thrilled with the outcome. “I love the fact that this was all done by people having fun and being funny… I thank and salute everyone who played a part in making this happen and really look forward to next year,” he said of the event’s success.

The president of Red Nose Day USA, Paul Telegdy, added “It’s so wonderful to know that so many children will benefit because of what was achieved on the inaugural Red Nose Day. I can think of nothing better than to do it again next year and continue this worthwhile and important mission.”

The tremendous success of Red Nose Day means even more success for children that currently have to survive in poverty. Your donation today can help a child in need. To donate, click here.
