nk has just recently been named as a UNICEF ambassador on Monday, with her mission already clear: promote physical activity in U.S. children.
This is the same undertaking as current First Lady Michelle Obama, and the initiative seeks to raise awareness as well as money for vitamin-rich, nutritional peanut paste to be delivered to internationally.
After seeing malnourished children in Haiti, the singer-songwriter was clearly affected.
In a recent interview, she had this to say about the current plight of underprivileged children in Haiti:"I got to watch mommas learning how to feed it to their kids.
And within a week, you can see the difference in these children.
It brings them back to life.
It's amazing.
When you get to see it with your own eyes and you see that something works, then it's a lot easier to get behind and advocate for it and try to make other people aware of it," she said.
