The night’s overall winner was 22-year-old Maggie Doyne from Mendham, NJ, who set up a school and orphanage in Nepal, and received $100,000 in community grants.

On the red carpet, Corbin described how he loves to give back, especially to kids through charities like the Starlight Foundation:

“…The are all these very young people just making a difference, and it just shows that you don’t have to be of a certain age, you don’t have to be of a certain caliber, you can do anything, wherever you come from, whatever age…” – Corbin Bleu

Do Something gives grants and support for teens to impact their communities through offline action. To find out more about how you can start your own project through the organization, visit www.dosomething.org.
