Wednesday’s question…
Tell us about your philanthropy journey and how you started and the issues you feel passionate about supporting.
“I wish I had a ton of money to give to as many organizations and people as I could, but the time that I give to the people when asked is when I think it makes the most impact in my life. I have been so lucky to work with different organizations through contacts and friendships I have. Most recently I have been on the board with the Roundabout Theater Company, where we are working EDI and equity, diversity and inclusion committee which has been impactful. I am also one of the founding members of Black Theatre United, which supports inclusion and diversity and makes incredible changes. Our biggest accomplishment over the past three years has been the new deal on Broadway, which guarantees inclusion and diversity onstage and backstage and throughout the Broadway system.“

A time was had on last week’s VACAYA cruise of the Caribbean. Several celebrities including Alan Cumming, Daya, La Voix, and Vanessa Williams were aboard the ship and performed for passengers during the week-long journey.
After an experience @vanessawilliamsofficial never had before, the singer talked to Out’s editor-in-chief, @dnlreynolds, about her surprise performance of “Kiss of the Spider Woman,” gearing up to play Miranda Priestly in ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ musical, and the progressive upbringing that shaped her to be a fierce LGBTQ ally. “It’s just standing up and showing your solidarity over and over and over again,” she says.
Read the full story and watch her chilling performance at Out’s #linkinbio.
