Hosted by Glee’s Jane Lynch, the “Do Something Awards” aired last night on VH1, honoring men and women, under 25, who are helping to make the world a better place. The show also honored a few celebrities who have made a difference through their charity work.
Megan Fox was on hand to introduce one of five finalists for the evening, each of whom has worked to create successful social change.
Ultimately Jessica Posner won the $100,000 grand prize for ‘Shining Hope for Communities’ a nonprofit organization the 23-year old co-founded shortly after graduating from college.
Watch Jessica talk about Shining Hope for Communities, below:
If you’re interested in getting involved with Jessica’s organization, she starts by asking that you simply “spread the word.” The organization is always looking for both financial contributions and volunteers to help support their efforts. Learn more on the Hope to Shine website.
You can also learn more about the work of the other Do Something Awards finalists on the award show’s website.
The Do Something Awards honored Christina Applegate, Kathy Griffin and the show Glee, for their positive contributions to the community.
