Miley Cyrus

Miley-Cyrus Miley Cyrus, otherwise known as Hannah Montana has a big heart for charitable causes. Her youthful enthusiasm for contributing to the well-being of others has found a variety of outlets.

Miley supports the Libby Ross Foundation, and recently decorated a yoga bag for an auction to raise funds for the charity’s yoga program. The foundation promotes early detection of breast cancer, as well as research to eradicate the disease and support programs for victims.

Miley is also involved with Musicians On Call, a charity that brings live and recorded music to the bed-sides of patients to promote the healing process. She agreed to perform at a concert benefitting this organization, joining Jordan Sparks and Gavin DeGraw. And, for every Hannah Montana concert ticket sold, Miley donated $1 to the City of Hope, a biomedical research, treatment and educational institution dedicated to the prevention and cure of cancer.

On September 14, 2008, Cyrus joined the Jonas Brothers in a special concert for City of Hope in Los Angeles: “We are honored and grateful for the generosity of Disney, Creative Artists Agency and the dedication of Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers in supporting the lifesaving work of City of Hope,” said Michael A. Friedman, M.D., president and chief executive officer, City of Hope. “This Concert for Hope demonstrates their commitment to improving the lives of patients with cancer and to helping create a future in which cancer is not only treatable, but curable and preventable.”

Miley Cyrus has raised money for these charities: City of Hope, Musicians on Call, Donatemydress.org, Red Cross, Houston Children’s Charity, To Write Love on Her Arms, The Libby Ross Foundation and Youth Service America.
