NEW YORK, Oct. 12 (UPI) -- Recently divorced model Christie Brinkley is focused on new beginnings through a wake-up call venture with U.S. Hyatt Hotels oriented toward empowering women.

The 52-year-old supermodel recently appeared in New York for the first time since her much-publicized divorce from architect Robin Cook and detailed the new wake-up service at new Hyatt Hotels with "Extra!"

"I have a message for women, inspiring them to get up and get into their day," Brinkley said of the customized service.

The limited edition service will not only help women arise with vigor but will raise funds for the Make-A-Wish Foundation charity as $1 from each call will be donated to help facilitate the ambitions of children with life-threatening illnesses.

"That's a cause that's always been really near and dear to my heart," Brinkley told "Extra!'
