Founding
It’s not all about glitz and glamour, however. Nile started the We Are Family Foundation in the wake of New York City’s 9/11 tragedy to provide a voice for young people. The foundation creates and supports programmes that promote cultural diversity while nurturing the vision, talents and ideas of young people who are positively changing the world, connecting them to brands, mentors and partnerships: its motto is the song, the mission, the world – doing work as far afield as in Nicaragua, Mali, Malawi and Nepal. The not-for-profit organisation is to host a We Are Family celebration gala in NYC on 27 April (dress style chic and hip, of course) – a tremendous evening honouring LL Cool J and Roger Daltrey who will be giving the US a taste of what happened in London in January when he too performed at the Albert Hall for Teenage Cancer Trust. Daltrey will be on fire on stage promoting The Who’s Teen Cancer America initiative. (Previously Nelson Mandela and President Jimmy Carter were honoured.) Doing something spiritual, giving something back may be the key to Nile’s serendipity. June marks a year since the Grenfell Tower fire in west London, which killed 79 people and injured 70 more; a guy recorded his flight with his toddler son blindly stumbling down the stairwell with a wet towel slung around their heads. They survived but many others were less lucky. Rodgers stepped in assisting in the voluntary operation personally handing out donations and packing clothes. Grenfell has since become a very volatile issue for the Royal London Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, not least because of the feeling that due to inner city overcrowding people are forced into substandard social housing (insulation being done on the cheap with flammable cladding allegedly).

ou and your girlfriend, Nancy Hunt, run the We Are Family foundation. And I know you have a new youth initiative. A Right after the George Floyd murder, we as an organization thought, "What can we do?" I mean, we started an organization about tolerance and diversity back in 2002, but what can we now do? We're really good at finding these incredible young people that are doing good in the world. And we support them, mentor them. So it was a really easy pivot for us to say we should now specifically create a fund where we are finding those young people. The Washington Post

DIANA ROSS will definitely smile through the tears of her recent unhappiness (a DWI charge in Arizona), and she'll gird her lovely loins to keep her Jan. 29 commitment to the We Are Family Foundation. They want to give her an award for her humanitarian efforts. While they're at it, they'll also salute Court TV chairman Henry S. Schleiff. You can bet the diva will appear in full glamour mode at the China Club that night. Patti La Belle, Ashford & Simpson and Chic, the hot Nile Rodgers band, are performing.

Post sponge bob -- The We Are Family Foundation is partnering with several groups on this project, including the ADL, the Anti-Defamation League. Now members of the ADL actually wrote the teachers` guide. Today, they tell me they edited down the final version to make sure it would fit inside the DVD case and not for any other reason.

The party was hosted at the home of Annapolis resident Mark Barondess, who Stepanek said is helping her accomplish her bucket list. Nancy Hunt, president of the We Are Family Foundation, planned the party. The foundation was started by musician Nile Rodgers and is a nonprofit that strives to solve global problems through various education and leadership programs. She said it was "one of the best things" she has done in her life. Hunt and the foundation have worked with Stepanek for about 10 years. The foundation annually honors someone with the Mattie J.T. Stepanek Peacemaker Award. It was first given to Maya Angelou and most recently to former President Carter. "This woman is living life with a purpose and that's what keeps her going," Hunt said. "No one was expecting (Winfrey) to be there. That's a testament to the power of Mattie and the power of Jeni and how important their message of humanity is." Other notable guests at the party included Rodgers and actress Monique Coleman, as well as family and friends from all over the world. The party also allowed Stepanek to accomplish another bucket list wish: have tea with a South African girl she has mentored for years through the We Are Family Foundation, but has never met in person. CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, a good friend of Stepanek's, flew the girl from South Africa to Annapolis for the party. She and Stepanek had tea at the park in Rockville that is named after Mattie.
