Mendes shared her first ever Instagram selfie to help raise money for the medical and living expenses of cancer-stricken Andrew Wilson.

AceShowbiz - Joining Instagram in March, Eva Mendes has just taken her first ever selfie and it's not just a common one as she took it in aid of a good cause. Sharing the black-and-white snap on Wednesday, May 20, she was seen in the image wearing a T-shirt that said, "Hope and prayers for Andrew Wilson."

Andrew Wilson is a 17-month-old boy battling Neuroblastoma, a form of cancer mostly found in infants and young children. 41-year-old Eva is supporting his family by helping to raise money to cover medical and living expenses as Andrew undergoes treatment.

"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," so the actress captioned her Instagram selfie. "Please, please donate - any bit helps! I'm going to sign this tshirt 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."

It was not surprising that Mendes got actively involved in the cause as her brother Carlos is also battling the disease. Prior to the selfie, she also shared a photo of Wilson and captioned it, "This little guy, Andrew Wilson Wratten, is full of smiles, a ball of energy and VERY special to me. He has been undergoing treatment for neuroblastoma cancer. His family has spent the last year going through every parent's worst nightmare as they watch their little boy endure grueling treatment and they need our help."
