It's tough to find great people on the planet today. One look at television and various other media would recommend that the upper classes are wholly concerned with peering into the mirror, and are totally devoid of interest in anything beyond their own self-aggrandizement. Isn't really that completion result of money? Corruption, down to the bones, and fame is certainly no help either, as evidenced by reality television and the impact it has had on many individuals and families.

Do not despair, though; there are  a lot of redeeming  instances out there, among them Diana Jenkins. Philanthropist, activist, entrepreneur, immigrant, refugee, and  mom, Sanela Diana Jenkins has championed a host of causes  for many years; at the heart of those causes is a belief in basic human decency and the  relevance of helping those in need-- as she herself was once  significantly in need.

When you think of Diana Jenkins, "foundation" is a world securely connected with her. Having actually established the Irnis Catic Foundation, in memory of her brother, Jenkins is involved with possibly the most well-known and respected Bosnian foundation. Diana Jenkins is herself from Sarajevo, and became a refugee in 1992 after war erupted between Serbs and Croats. She has actually regularly worked with the Elton John AIDS Foundation board of directors to raise funds to fight AIDS.

Just a couple of years back, she helped release Room 23 by Diana Jenkins and Deborah Anderson, a series of photos portraying stars in intimate circumstances in a single penthouse suite. The coffee table book, intended to be a book of art and reflection, was released to raise funds for the Sanela Diana Jenkins UCLA human rights organization SDJIHRP.

It's interesting to examine how Jenkins leverages her wealth and celebrity, as well as the celebrity status of others, in an attempt to help others. It is not unjust to question the very concept of celebrity in our society; we appear to raise others above ourselves almost because we need to, due to the fact that we want to. We desire idols to worship and then pull down, and on the other hand individuals expand extremely affluent over our ever-expanding nationwide fixation.

Why be obsessed with these individuals, though? They're actors and actresses, mainly. A couple of scions of rich families, a couple of business owners, however no one specifically special. Wealth attracts us, for sure; this is America, after all, and cash is in our blood. More particularly, the need for wealth is, and we need to own up to that part of our nature. Yet in Sanela Diana Jenkins, we see the possibility for star to become something more.

In Jenkins, we see the that star does not need to be about the red carpet and wardrobe malfunctions; it doesn't need to be about who is dating whom, or just how much so-and-so considers now. That's a sideshow, another symptom of the decrease of our civilization. In Jenkins, we see celebrity that is earned through assisting others relentlessly, celebrity that doesn't mind taking advantage of others if it is to the benefit of those less privileged. We see a celebrity that is noble. humanitarian projects for families
