DoSomething.org has released their  Celebs Gone Good list for 2017 to honor the celebs that fought for positive change and gave back to their communities in major ways.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀
This year, Chance the Rapper took the number one spot, which was given to Queen Bey herself in 2016.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀
While Beyonce still ranked high on this year’s list, other names that took a win were Colin Kaepernick, Ariana Grande, and Rihanna.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀
The rankings were determined through online votes, which included social media, a STARmeter ranking on the Internet Movie Database and the opinions of the Celebs Gone Good Advisory Committee.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀
In 2017, Chance raised $2 million for Chicago Public Schools and co-founded a foundation called SocialWorks to empower the youth. With his continuous efforts to give back to the community, it was no surprise that he took the number one spot on this year’s list.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Colin Kaepernick was right behind on the list. In addition to donating over $1 million to different organizations, Kaepernick also launched a social movement that involved protesting during the National Anthem in support of the lives lost due to police brutality.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Ariana Grande made the list for her participation with organizing the One Love Manchester benefit concert, while Rihanna was praised for raising almost a million dollars at the Diamond Ball.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Beyonce was number five on the list for the launch of BeyGOOD Houston, created to raise funds for the victims of Hurricane Harvey.
