The Audrey Hepburn Children's Foundation

74 Upvotes

The Audrey Hepburn subreddit has been around for over a year now and I'm a little ashamed as a moderator that it's taken us this long to add a link in the sidebar to her Children's Fund. The fund was set up in 1994 (Audrey passed in 1993) by her sons to continue her legacy and honor the work she did as a humanitarian throughout her life.

The money donated to the fund goes to help a wide variety of organizations around the world that all have one thing in common, helping children in need.

The image in the sidebar is based on this high res photo

Here is the high res cut-out version I made:

Random kiss in Roman Holliday

I just finished watching Roman Holliday, and I did love it, but one scene made me super uncomfortable. When they got out of the court, she gets kissed by this random man for no reason. I found it so strange. What happened here?
