Several celebrities including Slash and Lisa Edelstein are starring in a PSA for the Shark-Free Marina Initiative meant to raise awareness and stop the killing of sharks for recreational purposes.

Wouldn’t it at least be great to know all that money you’re shoving out to see Katy Perry shake her hips is going for a good cause?

If you buy your tickets from Tickets for Charity, at least you’ll be helping out some great charitable organizations like the Humane Society of the United States.
