On this year's Golden Globes red carpet, the buzz wasn’t all about the famous faces and beautiful dresses. There was also a generous charity initiative going on, courtesy of Moët & Chandon, as part of their second annual "Toast for a Cause" program. The company behind the official champagne of the Golden Globes enlisted the help of celebrities to give back to those in need.

In "Toast for a Cause," celebrities are asked to make a champagne toast to their favorite charity – in return, Moët & Chandon donates $1,000 to that charity on their behalf. It’s the only initiative of its kind conducted on an award show red carpet, and this year, celebs were bubbling at the chance to participate.

Here are just a few of the celebrities who made toasts at this year’s Golden Globes, and the charities they chose:

Olivia Wilde, Oxfam

Zachary Levi, Operation Smile

Tom Hanks, Welcome Home Veterans

Rita Wilson, Women’s Cancer Research Fund

Mark Saling, James Hunter Wildlife Rehabilitation

Blair Underwood, AIDS Health Care Foundation

Kaley Cuoco, Humane Society

Eric Stonestreet, Wave Side Waves

Kevin Spacey, Save the Children

Scarlett Johansson, USA Harvest

Gabourey Sidibe, Fresh Air Fund

Chris Noth, Rainforest Action Network

Christina Aguilera, World Food Programme

LL Cool J, Camp Cool J

Jake Gyllenhaal, who was the 20^th celeb to participate, chose New Eyes for the Needy as his favorite charity. To commemorate their own 20^th anniversary with the Golden Globes, Moët & Chandon donated an impressive $5,000 to Jake’s choice.

See? Award shows aren’t always about the stars giving each other a pat on the back! Sometimes, they're about giving back to those who need it most.
