Brooke Fraser - great use of a popular following by a role model. She has my respect.

Brooke Fraser gets the value of using her ‘brand’ … and putting her body in the space to support good causes. Here’s what she says about the poverty of Africa, on her way to Ethiopia:

“This is my eighth visit to the continent but my first to Ethiopia and I’m expecting it to be a pretty weighty experience, especially in light of what is unfolding in east Africa.
“Yet at the same time you often find that people with the least in material terms, often have this deep and infectious joy which is sorely lacking in so many ‘wealthy’ cultures. I always leave inspired and challenged.”
