Since his passing, Silva has dedicated her life to providing 1,800 children with EKG screenings to detect any possibilities of life-threatening conditions. Silva’s foundation also helped pass state legislation in Pennsylvania coined Aidan’s Law, which ensures that all schools are equipped with up to date AED devices.Women of Worth reminds us that beauty lives far beyond the eyeshadow palettes and lipstick that sits in a makeup bag — beauty is philanthropy, altruism and selflessness too.Read More18 Products Editors Are Loving This Month8 Best Lip Glosses Of 2018Best Lipstick and Lip Scrub Combination
