It 's no secret for Victoria's Secret Supermodel Selita Eubanks to give back


Supermodel, Selita Eubanks was born in Georgetown-Cayman Island on February 15, 1983. Her family lived in a small house on Walker Road. With seven brothers to fight, she learned early to fit in with the boys by playing soccer, basketball, and tennis. Later, Selita migrated to the United States where she enrolled as a law student at Spelman College, Columbia University, and New York University. Her desire become an inspiring lawyer changed after being discovered by an agent of Elite Model Management at Six Flags Great Adventure Theme Park. From that moment, she knew that she was on her way to fame and fortune. Selita was endorsed by many of the biggest and best name brand fashion in the business such as Fashion World, Levi's,Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren. And was photographed by some of the most famous photographers:Seven Kline, Peter Lindberg, Mikael Jansson, Carter Smith and others.


Selita Eubanks modeled for Victoria's Secret and was featured in Sports illustrated Swimsuit magazine in 2007. Later, the Victoria' Secret beauty wanted to give back to those who were less fortunate. After traveling to Africa, Sierra Leon, she was moved by what she saw and heard from the women in the villages. She heard that one in four children die at before five years of age and one in 10 women die during childbirth.


Selita reports, "If you get injured and go to the hospital, you have to bring your own gauze, syringes, medicine because they don't have it." After returning home, Selita decided to "give back" by establishing "Women's Coalition for Empowerment and Opportunity[WCEO] her own charity-a subsidiary of Shine on Sierra Leona agency which works with hospitals to help heal people and provide health care and supplies as well. Of course, Selita knows that it takes money, lots of money to support her charity so she begins raising money for her charity by competing as a contestant on Donald Trump Celebrity Apprentice starting Sunday on NBC at 8 p.m. EST a show featuring stars like Selita can raise money for the charities they love
