The total amount collected will go entirely to the Guardian Angels of Monaco, the Association that every Monday evening visits the homeless people in Nice, with volunteers bringing food, sleeping bags, blankets, hygiene products, warmth and a little sweetness to around 400 people, as well as helping children, mothers and the elderly.

The Baroness currently lives between a suite at the Fairmont in Monaco, a loft in New York overlooking Central Park, an apartment in one of the most sumptuous condominiums in Miami Beach (the Portofino Tower), and a Swiss chalet.
