By directing funds through other pre-existing organizations, such as The Lili Claire Foundation, children will receive a unique and comprehensive blend of support services including medical and behavioral genetics clinics, psychosocial counseling, advocacy services, information libraries, and community outreach that will ultimately help improve the lives of families and children living with neurogenetic disorders.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.hauteliving.com/blog/paulina-rubio-press-conference/ |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130125015347/http://www.hauteliving.com/blog/paulina-rubio-press-conference/ |url-status=dead |archive-date=25 January 2013 |title=Paulina Rubio Press Conference {{pipe}} Haute Living Magazine |publisher=Hauteliving.com |date=7 December 2009 |access-date=30 March 2010 }}</ref> In 2010, Rubio hosted the Paulina & Friends exclusive benefit concert for The Lili Claire Foundation which showcased musicians such as [[Luis Fonsi]], [[Aleks Syntek]], [[Noel Schajris]], [[Reik]] and [[Fanny Lú]].

"My friends mean everything to me and I am happy to have the opportunity to share the stage with them to support this great cause. All of them are excellent musicians and I know that as always, they'll do their best to make this an unforgettable night", said the singer. Jeff Simmons, community relations manager for The Lili Claire Foundation said, "I'm really surprised to see the number of artists who continue to join in on this great event, it's truly a blessing. Their contribution to the Paulina & Friends concert is spectacular and the Lili Claire Foundation will be forever grateful".<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.universalmusica.com/paulinarubio/2010/06/09/paulina-rubio-grandes-estrellas-de-la-musica-latina-se-unen-al-concierto-benefico-paulina-friends/ |title=Paulina Rubio: Grandes estrellas de la música Latina se unen al concierto benéfico PAULINA & FRIENDS {{pipe}} Paulina RubioPaulina Rubio |website=Universalmusica.com |date=9 June 2010 |access-date=10 March 2016 |archive-date=4 March 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304062147/http://www.universalmusica.com/paulinarubio/2010/06/09/paulina-rubio-grandes-estrellas-de-la-musica-latina-se-unen-al-concierto-benefico-paulina-friends/ |url-status=live }}</ref> In 2018, Rubio appeared in a [[People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals|PETA]] video reminding people not to leave animals or children in parked cars.<ref>Jessica Roiz, "Paulina Rubio Joins PETA to Raise Awareness About Dangers of Leaving Dogs inside Cars: Exclusive Video," ''[https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/latin/8468817/paulina-rubio-joins-peta-raise-awareness-animals-parked-cars Billboard] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180808113935/https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/latin/8468817/paulina-rubio-joins-peta-raise-awareness-animals-parked-cars |date=8 August 2018 }}'', 7 August 2018.</ref>
