“I don’t think it’s ever too late to want to make a change, and that’s why I’m here now because I want to learn,” she told People.
In addition to her donations and in-person meetings, Evan is participating in #BreakBreadNotFamilies, a 24-hour hunger strike and prayer chain that will last 24 days to honor the 2,400 children separated from their parents due to President Donald Trump’s “zero tolerance” policy.
“It’s a small price to pay considering what families are going through,” she says of her decision.
