I shared some of my home footage of our unforgettable moments in Africa with ET. Take a look at the video to see me talk about the amazing trip and the Diamond Empowerment Fund and to see footage from our visits to the diamond mine and the childrens' feeding center.

We all went to a feeding center where kids and older women were fed twice daily. We made them milk by mixing powder and hot water and fed them slices of bread. These kids were so appreciative! Khloe had a camera and they were all in such awe of it! She would take pictures and then show them their own photo and they would scream! They were so lovable and they were crying when we left!

The older women have their own shop where they make everything from clothes to beaded jewelry. Khloe and I bought a bunch of really cool bracelets! They all sang and danced, which was pretty emotional. This was one of my favorite moments from the whole trip!

I was so impressed with these students. They were so smart and so ambitious! The Diamond Empowerment Fund is going to help sponsor this amazing school called the African Leadership Academy. The kids were kind enough to meet with us and share their stories of how they basically came from nothing and have had the opportunity to get free college funding, and when they graduate if they cannot find a job then they never have to pay back their tuition fees. They supply all the skills to create their own business so they can start working while still at the university.

Good luck to them in everything they do! The great future leaders of Africa will definitely come from these schools!

We're off to Africa for Russell Simmons Diamond Empowerment Fund. DEF is a non-profit organization that aims to empower disadvantaged people in African nations where diamonds are a natural resource, through education. Some people online have been judging me for my charity work with the DEF. No charity work should ever be judged, it's just wrong. We can all do something to help!

I am so excited about the trip! Has anyone ever been?? Or is anyone from Africa?

I recently met this amazing woman named Suzanne "Africa" Engo at a dinner for the Diamond Empowerment Fund with Russell Simmons.

She is truly inspiring because of her influential work in AIDS activism. "Africa" founded the New York AIDS Film Festival, the first film festival on HIV/AIDS in the world, says the United Nations. She is also involved with countless other AIDS-related causes, including the D.E.F.

What amazes me the most is that "Africa" recently finished a very long run from New York to Chicago—all in honor of raising awareness for HIV/AIDS. What an accomplishment! She ran 858 miles!

I am mainly writing this to you to show you how just one person can make such a huge difference! I hope you find her story as inspiring as I have!

Go Africa!

Russell Simmons hosted a huge charity event the other night for South Africa and the Diamond Empowerment Fund. Just being around Russell is so inspirational.

I had a chance to meet amazing people like Gayle King and Russel's brother Rev Run! (His wife Justine is the sweetest lady ever, by the way.)

Cassie and I were showing off our green bracelets, which I've decided to purchase for all my friends for Christmas gifts this year because proceeds go to empower economically challenged people in African nations where diamonds are a natural resource.

I was not asked to be an ambassador for the U.N. (as some reports have suggested today) but it would be an honor and I definitely plan on helping out the U.N. in the future. I am also excited for the work that Russell and I have planed in our fight for Africa!
