Jennifer Lopez's Charity Work, Events and Causes

Jennifer Lopez

Charity biography

Lopez teamed up with Amnesty International to launch a bilingual website aimed at raising awareness about Mexican femicide after learning that 350 young women have been killed in Ciudad Juarez and Chihuahua since 1993.

Jennifer and Marc Anthony made a large donation to Children’s Health Fund’s Operation Assist after Hurricane Katrina, and encouraged their fans to give as well.

Lopez donated an item to watchmaker Nixon to be made into a watch, the sale of which benefitted the MusiCares MAP Fund—a pool of resources set aside to address addiction and recovery needs of members of the music community.

Lopez did a photoshoot to help raise awareness for DKMS.

She was one of the recipients of Love Our Children USA’s “Mothers Who Make A Difference” awards in 2009.
