Childhelp - Advocacy Ambassadors

Advocacy Ambassadors

Over several decades and with the help of Sara O’Meara and Yvonne Fedderson’s history as Hollywood actresses, Childhelp has drawn numerous celebrities and everyday volunteers to support the organization's cause, promote it in the media, attend special fund raising events, and give up their time and talents for a noteworthy cause. Notable active celebrity ambassadors include Kathie Lee Gifford, Casper Van Dien and Catherine Oxenberg, Jane Seymour and Mary Costa.

In 2008, Sara and Yvonne were guests of Kathie Lee's on the Today Show to speak about the epidemic of child abuse.

In 2007, Jane Seymour sponsored an Art Pillow contest as part of the Jane Seymour Collection. Children ages 7–14 were challenged to create the design to appear on the pillow, which was revealed in April 2007 in connection with Child Abuse Prevention Month.
