The Kosovo born pop star Rita Ora is expected to visit her native country in April to do some charity work aimed at helping women survivors of war rebuild their lives.
Rita Ora, born in Kosovo to Albanian parents, says she has very close ties to her native country. “I go back as often as I can; it’s a very important place to me,” Ora tells The Hollywood Reporter. Kosovo also made Ora an ambassador. She confirmed to Hollywood Reporter that she will return to Kosovo in April to do some charity work with the United Nations Childrens Fund (UNICEF).
Rita Ora and the German fashion brand Escada are gearing up for a common cause: Fashion for independent and strong women to help women become strong and independent. Ora has teamed up with Escada global design director Niall Sloan to create a special edition of the brand’s iconic heart bag that debuted on 28 March in Escada boutiques worldwide. The well-known German label will donate 15 euros from each bag sold to the charity Women for Women International, which aims to help female survivors of war rebuild their lives. The donations will fund the organization’s efforts in Ora’s native Kosovo, according to Hollywood Reporter.
