Hollywood Starlets To Be Honored For Charity Work

A host of Hollywood’s most powerful women will be honored by Variety this month for their charity work.

The annual Power of Women luncheon at the Beverly Hills Hotel on September 30 will honor seven women for their humanitarian efforts: Natalie Portman (FINCA), Amy Adams (Ghetto Film School), Jennifer Garner (Save the Children), Katie Holmes (Dizzy Feet Foundation), Diane Lane (Heifer International), Eva Mendes (The Art of Elysium) and Management 360 founding partner Suzan Bymel (Global Creative Forum).

“By honoring this incredible group of high-profile women who are leading the charge, we hope to inspire and empower everyone within our industry – and throughout the world – to get involved and give back,” said Michelle Sobrino, Variety’s associate publisher.

It is the second time the event is being held, with last year’s event honoring Christina Applegate, Christina Aguilera, Maria Bello and Anne Hathaway.
