Inaugural Charity Honorees Include The Art of Elysium, Best Buddies, Childrens

Foundation, Keep a Child Alive, The Salvation Army, Stand Up To Cancer and

As the film industry has the Oscars, television the Emmys and the music industry the Grammy Awards, the charity
community and its most dedicated Hollywood supporters will gain global
recognition with the staging of the inaugural Noble Humanitarian Awards, to
take place at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Sunday, October 18. The two-hour
event, produced on behalf of the non-profit Celebrity Charity Awards
Corporation, seeks to annually honor up to a dozen charities and celebrities
who actively support them, elevating awareness of these organizations and the
impact of their work.

The organizations to be honored at this first-annual ceremony include The Art
of Elysium, Best Buddies, Childrens Hospital Los Angeles, DoSomething.org,
Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, Keep a Child Alive, The Salvation
Army, Stand Up To Cancer and Women's Sports Foundation.

Celebrities who will accept awards on behalf of the charities being honored
include Laila Ali (Women's Sports Foundation), Jessica Biel (Childrens
Hospital Los Angeles), Alicia Keyes (Keep a Child Alive), Joel Madden (The Art
of Elysium) and Brett Ratner (DoSomething.org), with others currently being
confirmed. During the ceremony, each will be presented with the trophy award,
designed by Antonio Banderas, with personal touches added by children who
participated in The Art of Elysium workshop at the Shriner's Hospital for
Children. Other performers and presenters will be announced closer to the
event.

With nearly two decades of experience across entertainment, fashion and
charitable projects, Janeen Mansour is creator and executive producer of the
Noble Humanitarian Awards. Mansour, who has interviewed many celebrities, was
inspired to create a dedicated award show for the charity community after
interviewing the Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson and learning about her
significant charitable work.

"Celebrities have long given their time to charity, championing causes they
feel passionate about. Their support draws media coverage, and organizations
benefit. With the Noble Awards, we aim to turn the spotlight back onto these
celebrities and charities in an effort to provide recognition, to educate, to
inspire, and to encourage even more support from the Hollywood community and
the public at large. It's an annual celebration of service and volunteerism,"
explains Mansour.

A team of entertainment veterans join Mansour in producing the Noble
Humanitarian Awards. They include Ziad Batal (Executive Producer), founder of
All 4 Media, one of the most prominent film and television production
companies and creator and producer of dozens of reality, talk and sports
programs in the Middle East; Michael Seligman (Producer), President & CEO of
Seligman Entertainment, Inc, whose 35 years of work includes the Oscars, the
Emmy's, AFI's, Kennedy Center Honors and Stand Up To Cancer; Tisha Fein
(Producer), whose three-decade experience includes the Emmys, Grammys, Tonys,
World Music Awards, Fashion Rocks, Movies Rock and Stand Up to Cancer.

The Noble Humanitarian Awards are produced on behalf of the Celebrity Charity
Awards Corporation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. With the staging of
the first annual awards on October 18, 2009, the Celebrity Charity Awards
Corporation will launch a year-round campaign to better unify the efforts of
charities with celebrities, influencers, media and everyday citizens in order
to create an effective forum for change and service. For more information,
