Former champion and current model takes part in charitable event (PHOTOS)

Former world equestrian sport champion and IMG Models’ current 20-year-old American model Kate Upton took part, in New York City, in a charitable event devoted to skateboarding.

Also, and together with a group of teenagers, she participated in a voluntary litter pick in Brooklyn’s Fort Greene Park.

And as a reward for all her hard work, Kate was treated to a skateboard lesson by 18-year old professional skateboarder Chaz Ortiz, Daily Mail reports.

To note, Kate Upton  is known for her appearances in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue first in 2011, when she was named Rookie of the Year, and again in 2012, when she was announced as the cover model.
