Kristin Bell wants Gossip Girl cast to come to the rescue!

Gossip Girl’s narrator Kristen Bell is asking Gossip Girl’s cast to come to the rescue for a special cause. In a comical way, Bell asks their help for something very serious because she knows they have a lot of influence over the younger generation.

She is asking the Gossip Girl cast to lend their support for a cause close to her heart, Invisible Children, for its worldwide event on April 25.

Basically, the event will help in the campaign to stop the use of child soldiers in Uganda — children who are abducted against their will and taken from their families to fight in this rebel war by rebel leader Joseph Kony.

During the April 25 event, those participating will “abduct themselves” to raise the awareness of the situation, hoping to get government and international bodies to develop strategies and support existing efforts to rescue the child soldiers.

I hope they participate as it’s not about war or rebel armies. It’s about a crime against children, against humanity. Events on April 25 are being held in 100 cities.
