Nicole Scherzinger has joined the star-studded UNICEF fundraising campaign for the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games.

The initiative is aimed at saving and changing the lives of millions of children across the Commonwealth. The Games’ Opening Ceremony will be in Scotland next month and that’s when the campaign will be launched.

Scherzinger visited disabled children in Guyana, as part of the promotional campaign.

She said: “It was wonderful to see how UNICEF is transforming children’s lives. I had the blessing of meeting children with disabilities who for most of their lives had been stuck at home or in schools without any accessible or welcoming outdoor space. But now, these children have somewhere safe to play and I could see they had hope and happiness in their lives. And that means everything.”

She also added: “The Commonwealth Games Opening Ceremony is going to be so exciting. Come on everyone, put 23rd July in your diaries, and tune in to help Keeley, Sachin, Sir Chris, Sir Alex, me, and many, many more, make the Commonwealth Games a life-changing moment for children. Together, wherever we are in the world, we can make sure children come first.”
