Kim Kardashian West has been named as one of Variety’s Power of Women New York honorees. This is based on her charitable work with the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles spanning 7 years. She not only donates proceeds from her eBay auction store to the nonprofit, but she also visits patients and their parents, especially during the holidays.

She says

 My father passed away from cancer,“I remember what it was like when my dad was going through it. You see the kids that are so strong. They feel so helpless. You want to do anything to help them.”
Children’s Hospital L.A. a senior vice president,   DeAnn Marshall,says that Kardashian West’s visits are beneficial to the children and staff.
“Her involvement has always been laser-focused,“Her positive spirit and genuine concern for their situations has lifted up many families during unimaginable times.”
On some of these visits, Kardashian West will sit at the patient’s bedside alone. Other times, she’ll bring along her husband, Kanye West, or her sisters. She’ll arrive at the hospital armed with presents such as iTunes gift cards or beauty products. “We’ll sit and paint our nails together,” Kardashian West says.

“They love to see their pictures on social media,” she says.
