Mendes takes selfie to help young Andrew Wilson

Eva Mendes has taken her first selfie after joining Instagram. The picture take is for a nobel cause though. She was wearing a shirt that read, “Hope and prayers for Andrew Wilson", reported by Ace Showbiz.

Andrew Wilson is a 17-month-old infant suffering from Neuroblastoma. The disease is a type of cancer, which is mainly found infants and young children. "This is my first selfie and it's for an amazing cause! Thank you all so much for helping support Andrew Wilson and his family", read the caption. It is not a surprise that the Hitch actress is actively participating, as her brother Carlos suffers from the same disease.

"Please, please donate - any bit helps! I'm going to sign this t-shirt and give it away to one person who makes a donation within the next 48 hours. Click the link in my bio to donate. Together let's help this family get their son the proper treatment that he needs", said the 41-year-old actress.
