Emmy Rossum is putting her celebrity status to good use by advocating the provision of and access to clean water worldwide.
She just recently hosted the Smarty Plants event with the skincare company Origins at Jimmy at the James Hotel in New York on September 16.
Emmy Rossum and Origins have teamed up with Charity: Water, a non-profit organization that provides water to people around the world who cannot easily access a clean source
Both Emmy and Origins are working with Charity: Water, a non-profit organization that wants to solve the clean water crisis one tap at a time.
They are in over 20 countries and have currently helped over 3 million people get access to clean, potable water. It’s a simple yet meaningful way to make a difference!
At the Smarty Plants event, Emmy wore a nude dress from J. Mendel’s Pre-Fall 2013 collection and pointed pumps by Christian Louboutin.

You can be sure that “nude” will not translate to “boring” by mixing textures or wearing pops of color — just like Emmy’s silk top, jacquard skirt, bold lips, and patented pumps.
