About the Cause

I believe stories can inspire action, and I want my work to make a difference beyond the page. That’s why I’ve chosen to personally donate 100% of my profits from The Boy Who Never Sleeps to Immigrant Defenders Law Center, a nonprofit organization providing free legal representation and advocacy for immigrant communities.This is a fundraising effort supported by, and in collaboration with the Immigrant Defenders Law Center. The decision to support them comes from my admiration for their mission and the critical work they do.
