The People’s Choice Web site atwww.PeoplesChoice.com serves as a year-round destination for entertainment enthusiasts to voice their opinions on pop culture by voting in and creating polls, and features an extensive video archive and photo gallery of People’s Choice Awards footage. PeoplesChoice.com houses the voting platform where fans determine the
categories, nominees and winners for the annual awards show. Fred Nelson is the President of People’s Choice, and the awards show is produced by Procter & Gamble Productions, Inc.

ACM Lifting Lives® November theme for its monthly “My Cause” web feature is “Hometown Heroes.” The web feature, which launched in August, will continue to drive awareness of artist-supported charitable organizations and support fundraising efforts for those philanthropies.
At the ACM Awards last April, ACM Lifting Lives converted the traditional artist gift lounge into a space where artists could give back to an organization of their choice, instead of receiving gifts themselves. In this lounge, artists stopped by to give a direct-to-camera message about their favorite charities. These videos can now be seen as part of the My Cause web feature on ACMLiftingLives.org, with new monthly features grouping artists and causes by theme.
This month, “My Cause: Hometown Heroes” features causes near and dear to artists’ hearts, from serving their hometowns to honoring the legacy of a loved one. Donations can be made to each charity using a donate link available with each video. Below are the artists and causes included in the November “Hometown Heroes” feature.
November: “Hometown Heroes”
· Danny Gokey – Sophia’s Heart
· Reba McEntire – Reba Ranch House
· Carrie Underwood – C.A.T.S. Foundation
· Darryl Worley – Darryl Worley Foundation
To watch the November My Cause videos and donate to these causes, please visit ACMLiftingLives.org. A new My Cause theme including more artists and charities will be announced in December.
