December 11, 2011 the fifth annual “CNN Heroes: An All-Star Tribute” brought out the stars and the heroes, to collide in a night of awards. Ending the year on the right note, the stars paid tribute to everyday American heroes, those that fight in the trenches for the good of their communities. The event is held in Los Angeles at the Shring Auditorium. The anticipation is high and the stories are tear provoking in many cases.
Tonight, Miley Cyrus performed a song and presented an award. Miley’s charity, “Get Your Good On”, celebrates the people that are doing good will to inspire others. Miley said that going to Haiti was the best experience, the results she saw moved her. Miley explained, “It is amazing to see them singing and dancing with kids…it’s the most rewarding thing you can do. I think its just important to get your good on… it starts at home. Instill into kids why it is so important.”
While she was presenting the award, Miley mentioned the “empathy” that is so necessary for doing good works. She mentioned that Rachel had that empathy when she started a charity to raise money for clean water. “Charity Water” went from $200 to over 1.25 million after Rachel died in a car rack – just days after starting her charity website.
