Do Something Awards 2011

Do Something Awards is an annual event which brings together people involved in social activity. Young people who are under 25 years and who contribute to improving society have great chances to hold the award. Besides, another category which can be distinguished with the award embodies celebrities revealing social activism. The Do Something awards 2011 took place in Los Angeles on August 14.

The list of Do Something Awards nominees included such celebrities as Justin Bieber, David Beckham, Olivia Wilde, Kim Kardashian, Tyra Banks and others. 17 year-old Justin attended the ceremony in 2010. This year he won in the music artist category beating Black Eyed Peace, Nick Jonas, Lady Gaga, Adam Lambert and Linkin Park. On the website of VH1 Channel, it was written,

Justin dedicated a music video to the many children battling illnesses worldwide, raising $150,000 for a Buffalo, New York children’s hospital and works with Pencils of Promise to help build schools and increase education opportunities in the developing world by donating $1 from every ticket sold to the organization.

David Beckham became another Do Something Awards winner who was recognized as the best athlete.

Beckham has donated his money and time to causes including UNICEF’s Unite for Children Unite Against Aids, Malaria No More, which aims to eradicate African Malaria deaths, and England for Sports Relief, which helps disadvantaged people around the world.

While the celebrities were “hanging out” at the Do Something Awards ceremony, Mandy Moore was in Africa. The singer and actress did her best to fight malaria there.

I’m proud to be a part of this historic effort that will save thousands of lives here in Cameroon, and grateful for the help of so many American supporters who are donating to make this possible.

Who knows, maybe Mandy Moore will hold the Do Something award next year?!
