The 5th Anthem Awards has rolled out its latest list of honourees, and this year’s lineup feels less like a ceremony and more like a celebration of people genuinely trying to make the world a little better. At a time when online influence often stops at likes and views, the Anthems are once again highlighting those who use their platforms for something deeper, whether it’s mental health support, educational initiatives, humanitarian work or long-term community building. The 2025 awards bring together artists, creators, activists and major organisations whose efforts continue to spark real conversations and drive visible impact across different parts of the world.
Sabrina Carpenter, Selena Gomez, Andrew Garfield and Lilly Singh are among this
year’s Gold Anthem Award winners, recognised for their consistent engagement with charitable causes and advocacy efforts. Carpenter earned her honour through her partnership with PLUS1, which donates $1 from every concert ticket to nonprofits focused on urgent social needs. Gomez was awarded for the initiatives led by Rare Beauty, which has grown into a strong voice for mental health awareness and inclusive beauty.
Andrew Garfield received his Gold award for his involvement with Sesame Workshop, known internationally for promoting children’s education and emotional learning. Lilly Singh was honoured for her Unicorn Island Fund, which supports programmes aimed at building equity and empowering communities.
A wide range of personalities and organisations also feature in the Gold honouree list. Among them are Katie Couric and the Colorectal Cancer Alliance; Lauren and Seth Rogen with AARP; Ad Council; Google; GLAAD; World Central Kitchen; Headspace; Make-A-Wish America; MTV Entertainment Studios; the ACLU; PBS; Spotify; Lush Cosmetics; eBay; Human Rights Watch; and the film Lilly, starring Patricia Clarkson.
The Anthem Awards additionally recognised special achievement honourees who have demonstrated long-term commitment to public service. Paris Hilton was named Advocate of the Year, Frances Tiafoe received Athlete of the Year, and Brooke Eby was chosen as Impact Creator of the Year. Tim Gill and Scott Miller were awarded Philanthropists of the Year, while Vincent Stanley received the Vision Award.
