The 30-year-old actress/director took to Twitter on Tuesday (July 21) to reveal that she is donating to homeless shelters in honor of her dad’s birthday.

“Today would’ve been Dad’s 69th birthday, so to honor him (& that glorious number), I will be donating $69.69 to as many local homeless shelters as I can,” Zelda tweeted. “Join me if you like, but regardless, know I am wishing you all at least one hearty, immature belly laugh on Dad today ♥️”

Robin Williams died by suicide in August 2014 at the age of 63 after suffering from Lewy Body Dementia, a type of brain disease that affected his thinking, memory and movement control.

Robin Williams' Grandson is Learning About Him Through 'Aladdin' Role

Robin Williams‘ son, Zak, is using his iconic Aladdin role as the Genie, to introduce him to his own son, Mickey.

Zak revealed to People that cels of Robin‘s famous roles hang in Mickey‘s room.

“His mom [Olivia June] and I have certainly considered how we want to introduce my son’s grandfather, my dad, into his life,” he shared in a new interview. “Certainly through his movies and the cartoons that he participated in is a great way. My son, Mickey, points at a cel that we have in his room of my dad that has the genie from Aladdin.”

Zak continues that in addition to the cels in Mickey’s room, there are even more “throughout our home that he sees on a daily basis. I think it’s being mindful and introducing the elements and stories about him slowly.”

He adds, “We hope that we can celebrate the positive elements and his works and films in a way that there can be appreciation and acknowledgment of him both as an entertainer, but also as a family man, and parent and grandfather to my son. So, the key thing would be for us to introduce it slowly and meaningfully. Taking an opportunity to share stories and his values in a way that we hope can be appreciated and embodied.”

Robin sadly died by suicide in 2014. Zak welcomed Mickey, whose full name is McLaurin Clement, in 2019.

Robin Williams' Youngest Son Cody Gets Married on Late Actor's Birthday

Cody Williams, the youngest son of the late actor Robin Williams, is a married man!

The 27-year-old tied the knot with Maria Flores on Sunday (July 21), which happened to be the same day Robin would have turned 68.

Cody‘s wedding took place at the home that Robin and his ex-wife Marsha Garces Williams used to share. His sister Zelda Williams took to Instagram to commemorate the day.

“The 21st of July has meant many things to me over the years. It’s the birthday of one of my favorite souls still on this earth, @junotemple. It’s the day Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon (as a space nerd, that’s pretty damn important). And it was the day my Dad was born, and the last day I got to see him,” Zelda wrote.

“That last one had begun to usurp the joy of the first two in recent years… that is, until two days ago, when it became something new,” Zelda continued. “On the 21st of July, 2019, it became the day I officially gained a new sister!”

“To @mariaaafloresssswilliams and Cody, you are a light in all of our lives. I’m so grateful to have paid witness to your love over the years, to have watched you grow and care for each other in ways we should all be so lucky to experience. You were already part of the family in my eyes, but now there’s an official slip of paper somewhere that agrees!
Zak, Mom and I love you both dearly, and I think I can speak for all of us when I say CONGRATULATIONS TO THE BRIDE AND GROOM!!! 🎊🥂🍾🍰💫🕊 ♥️,” she concluded.

Congrats to the happy couple!
