Amber Heard is giving back amid a fresh start.
On Thursday, the 30-year-old actress announced she was donating her full divorce settlement from estranged husband Johnny Depp to charity.
In a statement released to Access Hollywood, Amber revealed that the $7 million she received in the split would be divided equally between the ACLU and the Children's Hospital of Los Angeles.
"Money played no role for me personally and never has, except to the extent that I could donate it to charity and, in doing so, hopefully help those less able to defend themselves," she began.
Amber went on to say that the amount is "over and above" any charitable contribution she has made in the past, adding that she will continue her philanthropic efforts into the future.
She explained that her donation to the ACLU will have a "particular focus to stop violence against women," and how her volunteer work at the Children's Hospital of LA for the past 10 years helped inform her decision.
"I have seen firsthand how more funding for staffing, better equipment and better medication can make the difference between life or death for a child," Amber said.
"I know these organizations will put the funds to good use and look forward to continuing to support them in the future. Hopefully, this experience results in a positive change in the lives of people who need it the most," she concluded.
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Amber and Johnny agreed to settle their divorce on Tuesday.
According to court papers obtained by Access, Heard's lawyers had also filed papers to dismiss her temporary restraining order and domestic abuse allegations against Depp – claims which NBC News reports the actor has denied.
The former couple married in 2015 after first meeting on the set of their 2011 film "The Rum Diary." Heard filed for divorce back in May.
Access continues to reach out to Depp's attorney for comment on the abuse allegations.
