Our favorite Disney celebrity, Selena Gomez, has been officially named an Ambassador for UNICEF – the youngest ever!! She’s heading out to Ghana next week for her first mission. Regarding her new role the tween wizard says:
“Every day 25,000 children die from preventable causes. I stand with UNICEF in the belief that we can change that number from 25,000 to zero. I know we can achieve this because every moment, UNICEF is on the ground providing children with the lifesaving assistance needed to ensure zero becomes a reality.”
Caryl Stern, President and CEO of the U.S. Fund for UNICEF says, “We’re very pleased to have Selena join the UNICEF family, as a long time supporter, she will continue to capture and engage and audience of millions of young people to help ensure the health, education, equality and protection of every child.”
It’s so refreshing to see a young celebrity stand for something good, have morals, etc. People like that can truly make a difference in this world and in the eyes of our youth. We love you Selena!!
