Julie Burns and Uma Thurman on Supporting Low-Income Parents

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Oct 19, 2023

25 years ago, Julie Burns founded Room to Grow, a Bronx-based nonprofit that helps low-income families through the early years of a baby's life. Her pregnant neighbor at the time was actress Uma Thurman, who has supported the organization ever since. In this latest installment of "But enough about me," a series interviewing actors about issues they care about, we talk about their work together and the parenting advice that really matters as they near their 25th anniversary gala.
