JOIN USAfter securing her place as the world's sexiest Asian woman for the fifth time in a row, Priyanka Chopra has now grabbed the Mother Teresa Memorial Award for Social Justice.
UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie was among the first to take up the cause of fighting for the rights of refugees and displaced people. Priyanka will now take the baton from her as UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador.
As per reports, PeeCee received an invitation from the Harmony Foundation for lending her support towards social causes.
"I humbly accept the award on her behalf. As a mother, I am immensely proud to have a child who is so compassionate and has so much kindness in her. She exemplifies the fact that the more you give the more you get. Even
as a child, she was influenced by Mother Teresa and has been supporting Prem Niwas in Bareilly", said mother Madhu Chopra, who collected the award on behalf of the B-Town girl.
She further added, "It is justified for her to receive this honourable award and I am immensely proud of her. I'm thankful and I'm sure she is humbled that
her efforts have been recognised by the foundation that believes in helping the needy and supporting the deprived and raising funds for those who are impoverished."
