Selena Gomez, Goodwill Ambassador

Selena Gomez has been famous for over ten years. She's an actress and a pop singer. She's starred in a hit TV series and her band, Selena Gomez and the Scene, have released a hit album. She's a busy girl and she makes a lot of money! But Selena finds time to do lots of charity work too. She supports Island Dog, a charity that helps dogs in Puerto Rico, and RAISE Hope for Congo, a charity that campaigns against violence against Congolese women. Since August 2009, Selena has been a UNICEF Goodwill ambassador. She has been to Ghana to visit children who are living without enough food or clean water. She realized that she was publicizing their problems by visiting Ghana. This is what being a Goodwill Ambassador is all about - making people aware of the world's problems and encouraging them to help.​
