Kellan to be Honored for his work with Saving Innocence

The Gentlemen's Fund Initiative raises awareness for the issues that are essential to modern men. GQ encourages men to become agents of change by supporting charities that champion these causes.  

Kellan, who joins this year's other ambassadors, Adam Levine and Ted Danson, is being honored for his work with Saving Innocence. 

GQ will host the 5th anniversary Gentlemen's Ball on October 24, 2012 in New York City. This private fundraising event will benefit the charities supported by The Gentlemen's Fund.

HONOREE KELLAN LUTZ for his work with SAVING INNOCENCE

It happens in movies, in faraway countries, but not here, not in America. Right? Wrong. Sex trafficking is a reality for far too many in our own country, and hundreds of thousands of children are at risk annually. To combat this, humanitarian-minded men like Kellan Lutz are stepping up on behalf of Saving Innocence’s vision of ending the commercial sexual exploitation of children.

Through strategic partnerships with local law enforcement, social service providers, and schools, Saving Innocence seeks to rescue child victims of sex trafficking while restoring the cultural values of innocence and human worth. It's not about being a hero; it's about doing what's right. As Lutz puts it, "We all need to stand up to actively protect the innocence of our children."
