DoSomething.org is the largest online youth charity platform that connects youth with various charity projects. Recently I had the awesome opportunity to attend the Do Something Awards. The Do Something Awards is a ceremony honoring the nation’s best, civic-minded youths who are making a difference in the world. This award show was different than most because it focused on philanthropy and the set for the show was eco-friendly. Lights were made from recycled water bottles and the wood used for the set was donated to Habitat for Humanity. When I first arrived, I met Hope Solo, the goalie for the U.S. women’s soccer team and a two-time gold medalist! She won the Do Something “Athlete” award for her volunteer work with causes helping terminally ill children and for the marathons she runs to raise money for charity.
