German professional tennis player Angelique Kerber has been announced as a UNICEF ambassador, and stars in the charity's Wimbledon campaign.
The tennis star will draw attention to issues including education, malnutrition and girls' rights in her new position, and commented 'Throughout my life, I have always had the privilege of being able to pursue my dreams, so I would now like to take the initiative to work with UNICEF for children who were not so lucky in their lives! There are too many children in the world who are not well, because they have to flee before the war, have not enough food, or cannot go to school, so I support UNICEF'.
