Dakota Fanning Helps Light Up the Empire State Building w/ Save the Children

Dakota Fanning helped light up the Empire State Building in New York City yesterday, October 11. Dakota was joined at the event by Save the Children as she lit the building red in honor of International Day of the Girl.

After the lighting, Dakota attended a rooftop party with Save the Children to celebrate the day. She was joined at the event by young girls from the Save the Children sponsorship program.

I love that they lit the building for International Day of the Girl and that those young girls got to be a part of it. How cool for them!
