Coupled with the success of dominating both dancehall and reggae charts, she has also been tapped for an array of A-list philanthropic projects. Cherine updated her spokesperson repertoire by agreeing to lend her star power to Yoplait and Jamaica Cancer Society's Breast Cancer Campaign since 2010, which raised over $3.5 million JMD to benefit breast cancer victims. Anderson was also aligned with the United Nations-backed "Way Out Project," an initiative to end violence and endorse gender equality, which is run jointly by the UN and the Bureau of Women's Affairs. Additionally, her Reach One Child "R.O.C" Foundation, which she founded in 2004, remains committed to providing mentorship and motivational talks as well as need based scholarships to youths in Jamaica. In the spring of 2012 Cherine and a team of Reach One Child volunteers embarked on the R.O.C Jamaica School Tour, with a mission to engage teens in inner-city communities in discussions on topics such as teen pregnancy, violence, violence against women as well as making education their priority, in order to secure a better future. In 2013 she launched the ROC Scholarship Program to support scholastic excellence and encourage community building among public school 6th grade students with financial need, as they move into secondary school. In October of the same year the R.O.C Foundation joined forces with CherineTV to launch the Save Our Girls campaign to support the Jamaica Cancer Society's breast cancer research efforts.

She is in the final stages of completing her new album with producers Sly & Robbie and David Norland. The album was scheduled to be released in 2015.
