The Disney Friends for Change project is about making children and young people aware of the issue of environmental protection and showing them how they can protect the environment with small changes in behavior. At www.disney.de/friendsforchange, the participants were able to make promises about how they would like to change their everyday behavior in the future, e.g. B. that they separate the garbage or turn off the light when leaving the room. As part of the initiative, you will have the opportunity to vote on how Disney will distribute US $ 1 million to environmental projects around the world.

In the United States launched Friends for Change successfully in summer 2009, in Germany in late October 2010. 2009 appeared with Send It On a single with the participation of the Jonas Brothers , Miley Cyrus , Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato . A year later, Joe Jonas from the Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato teamed up again for the project and released the joint single Make a Wave .
