The musician hosted her annual Diamond ball at at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City. The ball which is in it's 3rd edition is thrown to benefit her Clara Lionel Foundation.
The foundation was named after her grand parents Clara and Lionel Braithwaite. The aim of the foundation is to help in the areas of education and health. They also help people who are affected by natural disasters.
The singer also kicked off her $1 campaign for her fans who would have loved to support, but can't afford to buy the tables at the event.
"I believe that as long as you have something you can help someone, you have enough to share, you have enough to help. It doesn't matter how small, how big, as long as you start somewhere. As long as you are there to lend a helping hand," she shared. "I think that's really important in our community and in our society these days."
"The Diamond Ball is so big and people buy these really big expensive tables to donate but my fans wanna feel like they're apart of it as well and maybe all they can offer is even a dollar," she said. "A dollar is so non intimidating and I feel like that's the reason its working and the reason I wanted to implement that into the foundation."
