Monique Coleman Smiles For Life

Monique Coleman blows a kiss to the camera as she arrives at the 2010 Britticares “Smile For Life” 5K Run/Walk held at Pacific Palisades High School in Pacific Palisades, Calif., on Saturday afternoon (May 29).

The budding philanthropist and entrepreneur tweeted about how moved she was to be involved, saying, “This incredible org is raising funds for research, direct assistance, and uplifting support for those brave children with cancer & their parents. Brittiana taught us to smile through trials & uplift others. Her story impacts me & I’m honored to participate in this event encouraging & inspiring others to stay strong and keep the faith.”
