How did you spend your summer vacation?
For those that follow the lead of American Idol finalist Brooke White, the answer will involve giving back to various charities and causes.
White is teaming up with Malaria No More to launch the "Save The World Summer" campaign. Its main focus is on providing mosquito nets to those in danger of the disease in Africa. In fact, the participants that raises the most money for these nets will earn two free tickets to next season's American Idol finale.
"This generation of American kids is the most globally-conscious and actively engaged the world has ever seen," said White.
"Malaria remains the number one killer of children under five in Africa, claiming more than one million lives a year including an African child every 30 seconds and I am so inspired and proud to be participating in this summer campaign. These kids amaze me and see no reason to wait until they grow up to start saving the world."
For more information on how you can help - and, yes, how you can win those tickets - visit the "Save the World Summer" official site now.
