History

29 Disney stars featured in a year-long TV and radio campaign encouraging young fans to take action on environmental issues in 4 key areas: climate, waste, water, and habitat. Demi Lovato, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, and the Jonas Brothers were among the original stars in the 30 second to 2 minute public service announcements airing on Disney Channel and Radio Disney. As part of the initiative, kids were encouraged to pledge online to adopt environmentally-friendly habits such as recycling through the Disney Channel website. They also had the ability to choose how Disney would invest one million dollars in various environmental programs. [2] The initiative was presented instead of the 2009 and 2010 Disney Channel Games. The first Disney's Friends for Change Games premiered June 24, 2011 on Disney Channel, replacing the Disney Channel Games. A special 30 minute program called "Lights, Camera, Take Action! Backstage with Disney's Friends for Change" that was shown on Disney Channel directly after Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie, was hosted by Tiffany Thornton and directed by Michael Blum and Tracy Pion. It showcased behind-the-scenes footage during the making of the project. [3]

When a show ends and the stars begin to transition their way out of Disney Channel, they leave the initiative as well. This is the case for the Hannah Montana and Jonas stars, among the other stars that have left. As of April 2012, there were 36 Disney Channel stars participating in the initiative, and 22 former Disney Channel stars who have left the initiative.
