How does the "Twilight" cast give back? Check it out...

MTV

By Tracy Rosenfield:

HollywoodNews.com: The “Twilight” cast is a well-known (and large!) group of actors. But in their “off” time, many of them use their celebrity to support charitable causes and help the greater good. Below are some of the actors and the charitable causes they support. If you know of any other charities these actors support, please leave a note in the comments and I will add it to the already large list!

Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Anna Kendrick, Taylor Lautner
Hope for Haiti
As you may have seen, Robert Pattison took time out from filming in London to speak to a world-wide audience during George Clooney’s “Hope for Haiti” telethon on January 22nd.
Kristen Stewart, unable to participate in the telethon due to her participation in Sundance, later scheduled a dinner at La Vida with proceeds going to the same organization.
Anna Kendrick and Taylor Lautner appeared on the “Hope for Haiti” telethon, answering phone calls to take donations for the event.

Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner: Attended a “New Moon” benefit screening in Knoxville, TN, where the nearly $400,000 raised went to charities such as East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, Second Harvest, Boy Scouts of the Smokies, Imagination Library, and the American Heart Association.


Kristen Stewart: In addition to Hope for Haiti, Kristen Stewart participated in a Diabetes Walk event in late 2009. She also participated in Sam Bradley’s “Gewa” charity concert which raised money for people in Tibet. Kristen recently signed speakers, with proceeds benefiting
Clothes off Our Backs. There’s still 14 days left on this auction, so place your bids now!
