Aly & AJ in the Race to Erase MS

I always love to see young stars get involved with causes. For one thing, they often have a contingent of teen- and tween-age fans who adore them and learn from them. Additionally, when stars begin working toward good causes when they’re kids, I think it gives them an appreciation for how important it is that they use their fame for good.

Aly & AJ, the teen duo whose music can be found absolutely all over the Disney Channel, obviously realize they’re in a position to make a difference. They modeled Tommy Hilfiger’s orange t-shirts to support the Nancy Davis Foundation for MS. May is MS Awareness Month, and the Nancy Davis Foundation is working with numerous retailers to sell items like the t-shirts to raise money.

Orange is the foundation’s signature color — it symbolizes hope. Proceeds from sales of the MS items will help community education and the funding of MS research.

The shirts are selling for $25, and you can purchase your own at the Nancy Davis Foundation for MS. While you’re there, you can shop for other items to support the foundation, such as an orange leather bracelet, orange wallet, lip gloss, nail polish, and more.
