In the spirit of Thanksgiving, "1 Act, Give Back, Feel Good" asks kids to contribute canned goods for event entry; the items will be sent to the Food Bank For New York City for those affected by Hurricane Sandy. Donations are also being collected HERE [direct link] through the Food Bank's Virtual Food Drive, that uses their wholesale purchasing power and efficient distribution model nearly tripling the amount of food a dollar can provide at the grocery store. DoSomething.org is also asking teens to collect donations through their Pantry Prep Campaign, which mobilizes teens across the U.S. to help stock their local food pantries against future crises. The party with a purpose will also feature games and prizes by Nickelodeon including D3 Publisher "Victorious: Taking the Lead", "Big Time Rush: Dance Party" for Nintendo's Wii™ system by Game Mill, as well as photo booths, live music by DJ Filthy RichTaj and special performances by 17-year-old singing sensation Ryan Beatty [direct link], emerging popstar singer from the Bahamas, Angelique Sabrina [direct link] and teen hip hop phenom Jordan Newt [direct link] to reward and inspire the kids to continue their generous efforts.

Since its inception, WAT-AAH!'s products, events and marketing have always been inspired by kids, from the first bottle designed in 2008 by Jack, 13-year-old son of WAT-AAH!'s Founder/CEO Rose Cameron, to their latest limited edition bottle which was designed by Sammi, an 11-year-old, sixth grader from New York City who was chosen as WAT-AAH!'s #1 fan.

"We are very happy to help in the Hurricane Sandy relief effort through the partnership with DoSomething.org, and the Food Bank For New York City, and to assist these kids to help those less fortunate," says Founder/CEO Rose Cameron. "As a brand we empower kids to participate in our health initiative, express their creativity, and contribute to their communities. Through our partnership with teens such as Sammi, Ryan, Angelique, Jordan and DJ Filthy RichTaj, we hope to inspire other kids and teens to do the same."

The limited edition bottle features Sammi's personal favorite SKU- WAT-AAH! Body- pure spring water with a neon pink label. While the label retains all of its existing elements, the new design adds motifs reflecting Sammi's vibrant, outgoing, and creative personality. Specifically, the label incorporates some of her favorites such as neon colors, flowers to swirls, hearts and even high heel shoes!

The new limited edition bottle is available through the end of the year and is currently sold in stores and schools nationwide such as Kroger, Shop Rite, Shaw's, Bi-Lo, Whole Foods Markets and many others.

About WAT-AAH!:

It was created by Rose Cameron in 2008, after learning an alarming fact that the current generation of kids are predicted to have a shorter life expectancy than their parents due to childhood obesity. Inspired by her two boys, and Cameron's 20+ years experience developing successful national marketing campaigns for automotive, beverage and health companies health, they worked to create the iconic screaming boy logo, and a brand was born. WAT-AAH! which is for kids, by kids, has been successfully spoken to kids through advertising, events and exciting sponsorship programs. Some of WAT-AAH!'s major partnerships have included Nick Cannon and his Celebrity High Magazine, Beyonce Knowles for the nationwide Move Your Body Flash Workout Event, and NFL players Marques Colston and Pat Peterson.
