Bullock Wins 2008 Do Something Award!
Do Something's very own Chad Bullock accepted the Do Something Award from Scarlett Johansson this past weekend as part of the 2008 Teen Choice Awards!
The ceremony, held at Universal Studios in Hollywood, CA was a star-studded success showcasing the tremendous work Bullock and the 9 other finalists have done to change their world.
Said Johansson of the awards, "You know, those kids were amazing! I met all of them before and talked to them. Each one of them individually, had such drive. I came home and couldn't stop talking about these kids...It was a very cool category. It was great!"
Bullock has trained over 15,000 teens nationwide in developing an action plan, led activists to make Durham Bulls Athletic Park smoke-free, and successfully petitioned the Attorney General to sue cigarette campaigns targeting kids. He will receive a $100,000 grant from Do Something to continue his efforts across the country.
Want to hear more about the 2008 Do Something and Teen Choice awards, including exclusive interviews, photos, and video from the pre-party? CelebsGoneGood has the scoop!
