Miley Cyrus is looking for ways to help those affected by the terror attacks in Belgium on Tuesday (22Mar16).
Around 30 people have been reported dead and more than a hundred were left injured in two explosions at Brussels international airport and a further blast at the Maelbeek metro station on Tuesday morning.

working with members of her Happy Hippie Foundation to help those
impacted.
"My (heart) breaks for Brussels today," she writes on Instagram.
"My heart breaks for the world today.... When will this end, and
the love begin..... This isn't the planet I wanna live on...
NOTHING in the world matters but giving love to others! It's what
we need more than anything else! MORE LOVE LESS EVIL!!!
"Talking with @happyhippiefdn now about what we can do to be there
for our friends in Brussels ... Stay tuned on how to get
involved... today we must focus on what unites us .... not divides
us."
Miley, 23, founded the Happy Hippie Foundation in 2014. The
non-profit organisation aims to help vulnerable youths, including
the homeless and those in the lesbian, gay, bisexual and
transgender (LGBT) community.
