Karen on Her Role as an Ambassador

“Profile and Story Go Hand in Hand

The story behind Gadens Børn is truly unique! In less than 10 years, Gadens Børn has established schools, mother-and-baby homes, mobile health clinics, girls' homes, among many other initiatives in the poorest corners of Kolkata.

Lives must be saved! – and that’s exactly what they do!

I am full of admiration and delighted at the thought of being part of this work. Vulnerable children and young people need help, and action must be taken now to change tomorrow's horrors. My personal cause is precisely to help children and young people in the developing world, which is why I chose Gadens Børn! – And with Pia at the helm of the organization, there is only one thing to say: RESPECT!”
