The Jonas Brothers Support The Elephant Project!

The Jonas Brothers each hold up a stuffed elephant in support of The Elephant Project, an organization to raise money and awareness for the Alzheimer’s Association.

Here’s how The Elephant Project works: Celebs pose with an elephant beanie baby (because “elephants never forget”) and sign a special Elephant Project card, which are then auctioned off to raise money to fight Alzheimer’s disease. Each auction package comes with an 8″×10″ picture of the celebrity and the elephant, a signed card from that celebrity, and an elephant beanie baby.

Currently, over $21,000 has been raised for Alzheimer’s care, research and support!

Ariana Grande is warming up her vocal cords not for another YouTube cover, but for a bigger benefit — The Broadway in South Africa Benefit!

The event will celebrate and benefit the funding for Broadway in South Africa (BSA), which is a non-profit venture aimed to develop a cross-cultural exchange between youth who are in need and artists who seek to use their talents for change.

Also performing are Frankie Grande, Emma Hunton, Jose Llana, Tracy McDowell, and Lisa Nicole Wilkerson.

It all takes place on October 4th @ 7PM at the Manhattan Center in NYC.

“I am going to run a half marathon this November,” the 27-year-old actress blogged. “Yup. Me. The asthmatic with a years-old knee injury, who hasn’t run a mile since Junior High. No seriously.”

Sophia continued, “I am going to work on video blogs for all of you, so you can meet the team members and our sponsors, you can see our runs, track our progress, and maybe even run with us, wherever you are! Imagine it. Hundreds, or even thousands of us, running all over the country, maybe all over the world! That would certainly show the powers that be that we will not back down. We will not be quiet. We will make our Little Voices heard!”
