Orlando received Bambi Award for Charity

On November 11th, 2010, Orlando received the Charity Bambi Award for his work with the United Nations Children’s Fund UNICEF, and made Germany a compliment: 'I've fallen in love with your country, especially in your sausage and Bavarian beer. " The Award ceremony took place at Filmpark Babelsberg on November 11, 2010 in Potsdam, Germany. Here is the translation from the German of what Sarah Jessica Parker said about Orlando, before giving him his prize:
"Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I now have the honour to introduce a man who amongst all the lucky people in front of me probably is the luckiest. He played in blockbusters like “The Lord of the Rings” or “Pirates of the Caribbean” and is now one of the most sought-after Hollywood actors. Not only is this man attractive and successful but also married to one of the most beautiful women in the world. But what is Mr Bloom doing if he’s not filming? Instead of relaxing, he travels around the world and visits children in need and helps the poorest of the poor. Some of us donate money, spend time, a few of us show commitment on demand – but Orlando, you do everything of that. For UNICEF, you travelled into the poorest regions of Nepal so children get clean drinking water and are able to go to school. You visited aid projects in Russia and Bosnia so children get the support they deserve and in New Orleans, where there is still need after the hurricane Katrina, children know that they can count on you. UNICEF has named you their honorary ambassador for your relentless commitment. A great honour which is only reserved for very few. Orlando Bloom – You once said you wouldn’t want to live in a golden cage. Your example shall encourage us all to share with other, less benefited so they can live more happily and healthier. I admire your extraordinary commitment, your great compassion and your care for people in need."
Thanks a lot to Beriawen of Orlando Love for providing this.
