Inspired by Bill Gates & Warren Buffett’s Giving Pledge, the Hollywood Pledge is pleased to announce the launch of its initiative and website, www.HollywoodPledge.com, which has brought together some of the biggest names in music, fashion, sports and entertainment to pledge their support for charities and stand together to demonstrate the importance of philanthropy.
Richard Gere, Hugh Jackman, Jewel, Kim Kardashian, Kellan Lutz, Ricky Martin, Adrian Peterson, Jordin Sparks, Justin Bieber and Denzel Washington are just a few who have already taken the Hollywood Pledge.
“For more than seven years, The Give Back Hollywood Foundation has linked celebrities with meaningful causes and produced hundreds of charity events, especially those focused on children, health and disaster relief,” explains founder and president Todd Krim. “The Hollywood Pledge, inspired by the ‘Giving Pledge’ is a natural evolution of this effort and intended to drive the adoption of charity causes by the leading figures in entertainment, which in turn can become an incredible motivator for fans worldwide to embrace the same commitment.”
The ABC Television Network, The Hollywood Reporter and the Screen Actors Guild Foundation have signed on as official partners of the Hollywood Pledge. All three of these organizations have pro-social initiatives, ABC’s “A Better Community,” The Hollywood Reporter’s July issue focusing on “Philanthropy and Hollywood,” and the Screen Actors Guild Foundation’s Children’s Literacy Initiative. Additional sponsors of the Pledge include JetBlue, Fashion Forms, Glam Rock Watches, L’Anza Healing Haircare, LePosh Salon, Niche Your Home, Coca-Cola, Coffee Bean and Fig & Olive.
