Britney Spears has left her mark by opening children's cancer foundation in Las Vegas, and many children are bound to benefit from it.
On Saturday, the pop star attended the great opening of the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation's Britney Spears Campus, located just a few miles from where she performs her residency show.
Through donations from ticket sales from her Planet Hollywood show, Spears donated $ 1 million dollars to make the campus happen.
"I'm just really excited to be standing here for our new NCCF campus," Spears said before the ceremonial ribbon cutting.
"We started fundraising in 2014 and we've raised $ 1 million to build this amazing facility to support the kids and families everywhere. I'm so thankful to everyone for their generosity in making this a reality and making this happen." With wind whipping around her and her boyfriend Sam Asghar near, Spears listened on as local officials sang her praises at the opening.
"We can not thank Britney enough being able to do this. Our dream for many, many years has been to be able to have one one building that all of our 45 programs can come together in one place And that we are able to to today, "said NCCF CEO Jeff Gordon.
"And that does not happen without someone like Britney Spears." By working with Spears and his team, he said, "We saw a side of Britney Spears that so many people maybe do not have the chance to see. You know what a special person Britney is. She's an incredible performer, we know all that, but she does care and the more we have gotten to know her, the more thank we've become to her, and the kids have adored her. "
