It is sooo refreshing to find a celebrity doing something worthwhile and using their fame to help out others! We have these amazing and adorable shots of Hills Hottie Kristin Cavallari who has traveled to El Salvador to help rebuild schools and to help improve the community for One Kid One World. Kristin was not afraid to get down in the trenches and do some hard work to help out the kiddos. She helped build a new classroom as well as paint and improve the bathrooms for a school. She was able to raise over 20 thousand dollars for that cause! We salute you Kristin and hope others will follow in your foot steps!

A group of students who walked from Toronto, Canada to Chicago converged outside Oprah Winfrey’s Harpo Studios to protest the Sri Lankan military’s use of force against the Tamil population, committing what they consider acts of genocide. The students carried signs that said “Oprah give us a voice” in hopes of getting the media personasality to take an interest in their situation and broadcast a segment about the situation in Sri Lanka.

A Good Cause: World Aids Day

LPark — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 02:10:57 +0000

Our friends over at the Elton John Foundation sent us this press release and we thought we’d pass it along:

Today, in recognition of World AIDS Day, actress and Elton John AIDS Foundation (EJAF) supporter Penelope Cruz opened the Unbreakable Kiss Mistletoe Installation, sponsored by A Diamond Is Forever, in New York City’s Madison Square Park with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. For every couple who kisses under the mistletoe now through December 4, A Diamond is Forever will donate $5 to EJAF in honor of World AIDS Day. In addition, one person each day will be selected to win a piece of jewelry from A Diamond Is Forever.

The purpose of this “Kiss-In” is to raise money for EJAF’s grant-making initiatives in support of HIV prevention programs, efforts to eliminate stigma and discrimination associated with HIV/AIDS, and direct care and support services for people living with HIV/AIDS in communities across the Americas and the Caribbean. The Unbreakable Kiss Mistletoe Installation will be open December 1-4 daily from 2:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

“All of us at EJAF are deeply grateful to our dear friend Penelope Cruz for representing the Foundation at this important World AIDS Day observance and to A Diamond is Forever for choosing to support EJAF through this lovely and unique event,” said Founder and Chairman Sir Elton John.

Across the globe, over 33 million men, women, and children are living with HIV/AIDS, and every year 3 million more become infected. Over 56,000 of those infections occur right here in the United States, 34% in young people age 13-29. “Until we have a cure and a preventive vaccine, teaching people how to prevent HIV infection is one of the most important things we can do right now to bring an end to this terrible epidemic. That has been EJAF’s mission from day one,” Sir Elton added.

So, bring a loved one to Madison Square Park during this four-day event and share a kiss to support EJAF’s urgent work and to commemorate the 20th observance of World AIDS Day. For more information please visit

Sincerely,

Scott Campbell
Executive Director
Elton John AIDS Foundation
