What is the First Lady's role?

The First Lady of the United States is the President's wife, and while not an elected position, it carries significant public duties. She often champions social causes, hosts events, and represents the country. Melania Trump's 'Fostering the Future' initiative is a good example of a First Lady's chosen focus, using her platform to raise awareness and support for specific issues.
