Welcome to our new "Who's Doing Good?" page where we feature celebrities, musicians, athletes, and companies that are helping to make the world a better place.
Alyssa Milano
Actress Alyssa Milano is no stranger to international relief work.
Milano was appointed Founding Ambassador for the Global Network for Neglected Tropical Diseases. The Global Network is an alliance formed to advocate and mobilize resources in the fight to control neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). Milano works to raise awareness of NTDs by educating the mainstream media and general public of the plight faced by the one billion people who are afflicted by NTDs, and the importance in controlling and preventing this global health crisis.
Because of all her charitable work on behalf of children, Alyssa was invited by UNICEF in 2003 to become a National Ambassador. Her first trip with the world-renowned organization was to Angola, Africa (May 2004) to see first hand the issues plaguing the newly liberated country. Milano followed that trip with a visit to India in June 2005. She is currently working with UNICEF to educate American youth to the issues crucial to that country’s evolution. She launched UNICEF’s pivotal “Trick or Treat” campaign last fall as an official spokesperson, and has plans to work with UNICEF on numerous projects in the future, with any and all proceeds returning to the organization.
