10 Celeb/Charity Combos That Prove Hollywood Is Actually Good
A well placed product, tee or voice over can do wonders for a charity trying to make a difference. Here are 10 Celeb/Charity endorsements that prove goodness still exists in Hollywood.

The Grammy award winning duo kicked off 2014 with another charity endorsement. This time, they filmed a PSA for Characters Unite USA to their hit 'Same Love' promoting unity against discrimination and hatred.
5. Mumford & Sons/ Invisible Children

10. Taylor Swift/ Everything
Named by DoSomething.Org as the most charitable Celeb Gone Good two years running, T-Swift never seems to stop giving. In 2013, she donated $100,000 to the Nashville Symphony while also supporting Centrepoint, St Jude's AND the Red Cross.
