...that in August 2005, Assi Hellani added his voice to the growing roster of celebrities helping WFP raise awareness about global hunger and poverty, recording a Public Service Announcement drawing attention to the tragic fact that 25,000 people die of hunger every day, 18,000 of them children.
WFP stands for World Food Programme for those of you who don't know.
...that Egyptian actor Adel Imam was named UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador in 2000 to raise public awareness about refugees in Arabic-speaking countries?
In 2003, Angelina Jolie and Adel Imam met to discuss plans to work together to raise awareness of refugees in the Middle East after visiting Sudanese refugees near Cairo.
Seems like nothing has changed since then in the Middle East...or the media is just too busy reporting on Haifa and Rola feuds instead of covering humanitarians' work.Lame!
Committees in Egypt are trying to nominate Egyptian singer Amr Diab as a good will ambassador to the United Nations.
Now I love Amr Diab's music and all,but I believe he'll make the worst good will ambassador ever! why? 1-he's anti-social 2-he doesn't have the heart to do that!
I'd nominate Assi Hellani but he already is ambassador...there's also Fadel Shaker or Mohamed Hamaqi.
