Drew Is Helping Out

Drew Barrymore (presumably in Kenya)

Drew Barrymore is donating $1 million to the World Food Program to help feed children in Africa .

 

The 33-year-old actress made the big announcement on Monday’s Oprah Winfrey Show. So far, Drew has taken two trips to Kenya to see the WFP’s work first hand.

 

“I have seen with my own eyes what a difference a simple cup of nutritious porridge can make in a child’s life,” Drew said. “It helps them learn, stay healthy and sets them on track for a bright future. I urge everyone — everywhere — to help WFP ‘Fill the Cup’ for hungry children, and make hunger history.”

 

WFP has a dream: to feed 10 million more hungry school children in Africa by Thanksgiving Day. Join Drew in helping feed millions of people at WFP.org.

Supporting UNICEF

Celebs came out in support of UNICEF in Malawi at the U.N.  Is there a better reason to go out?  Well, maybe, but supporting charity is one of the best.

Celebrity Photographer: Michael Muller



“I try to capture the energy of a person who is being true to themselves. This I believe is the essence of a photograph.”-Michael Muller  

Mr. Muller isn’t only a celebrity photographer but has had gallery displays of his art photographs and sports photography.  But with celebrities, Michael cleverly combines a wee bit of the surreal or fantastic (perhaps that’s his use of light) with grit and reality.  His work is hard to define but much in demand.  Go here to see all of it, but here are the only samples I could find.
