Heroes Champion Good Causes - Part 2
On Friday we told you about the worthy causes that Zachary Quinto, Masi Oka and Noah Gray-Cabey are supporting. Today we’ll look at a few more of the cast’s favorite charities:
As a father of a son with epilepsy, Greg Grunberg has put his heart and soul into helping the Pediatric Epilepsy Project (PEP). A portion of the proceeds from his Band From TV performances benefit PEP and he is involved with other projects, such as the Epilepsy Freedom Walk, as well. The Pediatric Epilepsy Project funds reasearch as well as helping improve the lives of children with epilepsy. You can find out more about them at www.4pep.org/.
Ali Larter has most recently been involved with the Dove Campaign for Real Beauty. In fact, she went so far as to do her own hair for the Emmy’s last year - and she looked gorgeous as always! Dove’s Self-Esteem Fund distributes resources to enable and empower women and girls to embrace a broad definition of beauty and provides resources to organizations that foster a broader definition of beauty. For more information visit http://www.campaignforrealbeauty.com/.
And finally, Hayden Panettiere has a couple of organizations she is currently working with. I’m sure you all heard about her run-in with the Japanese government during her efforts with the Save the Whales Again! campaign. Save the Whales Again! is hoping to reignite the passion of the 1970’s campaign and help alleviate the problems facing marine mammals such as pollution, global warming, loss of habitat, lack of food, over-fishing, entanglement in nets, ship strikes, and whaling. You can find out more at http://www.savethewhalesagain.com/. Hayden has also been involved with the Declare Yourself campaign this year. This effort encourages young people to register and vote. Many young celebrities have been involved with the campaign. You can get all the lowdown at http://www.declareyourself.com/.
