Jennifer Lopez announced over the weekend that she will support her parents’ homeland of Puerto Rico by donating $1 million dollars to the relief efforts of Hurricane Maria. She’ll pull out $1 million dollars in profits from her upcoming Vegas show.

Jennifer made the announcement Sunday with New York’s governor, Andrew Cuomo, by her side. A few weeks ago, both former MLB baseball player A-Rod and she donated $25k a piece for Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.

Although Jennifer was born in the Bronx, her mom and dad, Guadalupe Rodríguez and David Lopez were born in Puerto Rico, immigrating to New York in the hopes of providing sister’s Leslie, Linda, and herself a better life.

You can follow Jennifer on Twitter on her official account @JLo.
