Young people are changing the world

[amny]

Hi Everyone-

Many of you have encouraged us to get involved and support various causes and charities. While we are working out our larger plans, we wanted to tell you about a great organization that a number of us here are involved with.

Do Something is a national non-profit organization that inspires and helps young people to take action to change their world. Each year they host a gala to honor a dozen amazing young people who are tackling pressing issues locally and across the globe. This year – the event will be televised – and many celebrities are participating to help honor these young leaders. We encourage all of you to watch the BR!CK Awards tomorrow night Thursday, April 12 at 9pm (EST) on The CW Network (after Smallville). Even better, watch it with your kids. It is so importatnt for our kids to grow up with a passion and desire to make the world a better place. They'll be inspired and so will you. Go to www.brickawards.com for more info.
