|
On Februray 2, 2021, PeopleStories announced its first ever ambassador, celebrated Australian actor Matthew Le Nevez. Renowned for his role as Dr Patrick on Offspring, Matt is about to extend his support to PeopleStories in its mission to provide education for children in Cambodia.
In his role as PeopleStories ambassador, Matt's first priority is to raise awareness and funding for 120 school scholarships for the current school year and help PeopleStories to build a school to transform education for children in rural Cambodia from “chalk & talk” to digital learning. Renowned across Australia and the United States, Matt is one of Australia’s most loved actors, having starred across film and TV for over two decades. His roles in Offspring, The Kettering Incident and more recently, The Widow with Kate Beckinsale, have earned him many accolades. Le Nevez currently stars as Cal Isaac in Absentia, the hit series on Sony and Amazon. Whilst brilliant in acting life, this talented actor is equally inspirational in real life. Having previously made noteworthy contributions as a management consultant in developing nations, it’s no surprise that Matt’s vision to make the world a better place resonated so well with the purpose of PeopleStories Charity. |
