Twilight star Robert Pattinson has been announced as GO Campaign's first ambassador, and will help raise international awareness of the non-profit organisation and support its fundraising efforts.

The organisation aims to improve the lives of orphans and vulnerable children around the world, by partnering with 'local heroes' to deliver local solutions. Pattinson commented 'I've eagerly followed the growing impact GO Campaign has had over the years, on so many children and youth, and I love how tangible and transparent it is. They partner with some remarkable grassroots local heroes who are doing fantastic work but who lack the needed resources, and in places where a little bit of money can go a long way. I've been a donor and a supporter, and now I look forward to joining their efforts, so together we can give opportunity to even more kids and young adults across the globe'.
