The Amy Winehouse Foundation makes its first charitable donation

Mitch Winehouse has revealed that the newly launched Amy Winehouse Foundation has already made its first charitable donation. 

The late singer's father took to his official Twitter page last night, November 13, to announce that the organisation, inspired by the tragic death of his daughter Amy back in July, has donated a significant amount of money to a very deserving cause:

"Tonight Amy's foundation gives it's first donation. Hopes and Dreams will receive a cheque for £10,000. Hopes and Dreams are a charity that helps terminally ill kids and their families. Great people."

"Amy feels good knowing she has helped Lots of kids tonight," he added.
