I wanted to do something special to celebrate my 16th birthday, and what better way than to throw a party for the Jennifer Smart Foundation? We’re also celebrating bringing the Find Your Voice program to a new home in Southern California. This star-filled event, featuring costumes and young music performers, will help us raise money to build our new center, and we hope you’ll join us.
You’re invited to “Show Your Character” on October 27th from 1-5pm in Van Nuys, CA. This event benefits the Jennifer Smart Foundation’s Find Your Voice program, which works to improve communication skills and self esteem in sick, healthy and disadvantaged kids.
This fun afternoon, hosted by Disney XD’s Ryan Ochoa and spotlighting several young artists, include special performances by the Ochoa Boyz featuring Chi-Town Finest Breakers, and by Tim Urban of American Idol.

Come on out to the New Mexico Children’s Fair on Saturday and Sunday, May 5th and 6th, at the Balloon Museum, from 10am to 5pm. Summer is just around the corner, and this event is chock full of things to keep kids from being bored, and some great ways to support organizations that help kids.
There will be all kinds of great activities for kids, from animals to authors, to gymnastics, face painting, crafts, monster truck rides and more. Most things are free with your paid admission to the Balloon Museum. Some are for an extra cost, which goes to children’s charities.
I’ll be there Sunday at noon, hosting the kids and dogs fashion show, which features dogs that are available for adoption. For more information about the event, click here.

I have been a supporter of Alex’s Lemonade, ever since I first met Alex’s dad, Jay Scott, in 2007. I was thrilled to be part of this wonderful event. I love talking to celebrities about their involvement with events like this, and it was great to see so many people open their hearts – and wallets – for such a worthy cause.
I’ve been a big supporter of Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation for years. Sunday, November 6th, they are holding their big Los Angeles fundraising event, the second annual L.A. Loves Alex’s Lemonade. It features award-winning chefs preparing their signature dishes right there, so attendees can watch them at work. There will also be an exciting live and silent auction and raffle. This even will be emceed by Jimmy Kimmel with honorary hosts Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka.
Tickets must be purchased by Saturday night online – there will be no tickets for sale at the event. This is sure to be a fun event, and it’s for a great cause. For more information and to buy your tickets, click here.
I hope to see you there!
