When a major humanitarian cause is the buzz around town in Hollywood, it is not uncommon to witness a line-up of celebrity icons step up, reach out and show their support.

The ASHÉ Foundation, a California based non-profit organization, is one of those celebrity endorsed organizations. ASHÉ is committed to changing the lives of millions of children in Africa who have been orphaned by AIDS, and also of those closer to home. Through their efforts, the foundation gathers and distributes shoes, clothing, other necessities, and services to aid the disadvantaged and underprivileged children of African nations. ASHÉ also recognizes the needs of the displaced right here in our own backyard, by supplying shoes for the homeless and disadvantaged in the Los Angeles area.

ASHÉ manages five different programs: Shoes for Africa, Shoes for Los Angeles, It Takes a Village – Sponsor a Child, A Road To Success – “Every Child Deserves A Place to Learn” and “The Power To Make Things Happen” Scholarship.

On Tuesday, April 14, Howard Hewett took the stage at the Vibrato Jazz Grille in Bel Air, California, to raise funds for the Defeating Diabetes Foundation.

The organization provides critical information about diabetes, holds camps and provides free glucometers to those who are eligible. Hewett’s efforts to raise proceeds were successful. The Vibrato Jazz Grille, owned by legendary musician and music mogul Herb Alpert, was packed for not only one but two shows that Hewett performed that night for the cause. A few surprise guests lke Stevie Wonder and Adam Gaynor (Matchbox 20) also joined Hewett on stage.

Diabetes is a disease that touches Hewett close to home: his mother died from complications caused by the disease.
