GREG GRUNBERG'S PEDIATRIC EPILEPSY PROJECT (2006)
To support Greg Grunberg's Pediatric Epilepsy Project, Ali and her Heroes co-stars had drawn illustrations of their characters to help raise funds
for the organizations. The Pediatric Epilepsy Project was formed with a single, all-important mission: to raise funds, provide financial support and
increase community awareness to help sustain the Division of Pediatric Neurology at UCLA. When Ali was asked how she
was inspired by her drawing, she said, "Aren't there two sides of you, too?" For more info about the Pediatric Epilepsy Project, please visit the

DOVE HAIR CARE TAKES A STAND FOR REAL BEAUTY (2007)
In August 2007, Ali announced that in collaboration with Dove Hair Care, she was taking a stand for real beauty by "going real" on the red carpet of the
59th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards in September of 2007. Her mission was to inspire women to start loving the hair they have and not compare
it to the unattainable images they see in the media and Hollywood. As Ali stated, "There is a lot of work that goes into Hollywood hair and I want women
to know that it is unrealistic for every day. I am going to use Dove Hair Care products for five days, get my hair in great shape and I am going to rock
the red carpet. I am doing all this to help women realize the potential of their own hair and feel more confident every day."
Ali joined Dove Hair Care on August 21st in New York at a session designed to help build self-esteem in pre-teen/teen members of the Girl Scouts of the
USA by serving as a positive role model and sharing her personal experiences. Ali said: "I believe in the Dove Hair Care message and I am excited to take
a stand for real beauty. I have learned to love my hair and I hope girls and women of all ages do the same." For more info, please check
