Lewis Hamilton and street children in Manila

Lewis Hamilton spent two days in Manila to visit some of the 85,000 children who live and work on the streets of Manila in the Binondo area. He took part in a film for UNICEF which will be aired in this year's Soccer Aid.

Lewis is such a great guy.

From Daily Mail:

'I hope that we have managed to make a film that will show the harsh reality for children who live on the streets in Manila and around the world,' Hamilton said.

'The young boys and girls who I have met today are really fantastic children, but they are living without the simple things that most people take for granted, like food, clean water and a safe place to sleep at night. It shouldn't be like this. But I've also seen how UNICEF and their partners are helping them and changing their lives for the better. Just a little money can make a huge difference for vulnerable children living tough lives around the world.'

'Please, buy a ticket for Soccer Aid in May, or watch the programme and make a donation. It could be the difference between life and death for a child.'
