ORLANDO BLOOM NAMED AS UN AMBASSADOR

Sexy actor Orlando Bloom has been appointed a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF). Orlando first joined with the non-governmental organization in 2007 and has since worked with UNICEF officials to raise awareness about children’s rights across the globe, a campaign he will continue in his new Ambassador role. He says, "I look forward to working with UNICEF as they continue to make the world a better place for children. "UNICEF doesn’t just deliver humanitarian aid, which is what they are known for all over the world; they also educate and provide tools which help women and children face challenges specific to their own lives. I responded to how UNICEF works as much as I did to the work itself. I look forward to learning more and to supporting UNICEF any way I can." Bloom’s job as a Goodwill Ambassador will be to shoot a public service film announcement highlighting the importance of access to clean drinking water.
