Just
like
everybody
else,
Aurora
has
had
her
“ups
and
downs”
in
life.
However,
and
overall,
she
can
only
feel
grateful
for
all
of
the
wonderful
things
that
have
gone
right.
And
it
is
not
just
that
she
feels
grateful,
but
that
she
actually
experiences
a
genuine
desire
to
give
something
back;
a
sense
of
obligation
that
arises
naturally
within
her
as
she
acknowledges
how
she
has
been
helped
and
cared
for
by
others.
To
her,
giving
back
is
probably
the
most
important
thing
we
could
do
to
help
us
grow
as
human beings.
In
light
with
such
philanthropy,
Aurora
is
determined
to
donate
a
portion
of
net
proceeds
from
the
sales
of
each
of
her
books
to a different cause.
This
project
(which
she
calls
“Operation
Do
More”)
starts
with
her
latest
work
“Little
Max
Parker
and
the
Secret
of
Oblivion”,
the
sales
of
which
will
benefit
the
“Soñar
Despierto
Foundation”,
an
international
service
non-profit
organization
whose
mission is delivering smiles to children in need.
For more information about Soñar Despierto Foundation, please visit their website pressing the icon.
Future
books
by
Aurora
will
support
different
causes
in
order
to
help
create
better,
longer
lives
for
the
greatest
possible
number of people.
Anyone
can
give
back
(sometimes
even
a
smile
counts),
anyone
can
make
a
difference,
and
everyone
matters.
We
can
definitely always do more.
Aurora would love to hear from you!
