6 Superstars receive Goody Awards of the Month for April 2013

The Goody Awards announces 6 Goody Awards of the Month winners for April 2013, and adds them to their Superstars. Once again, Ian Somerhalder (“Vampire Diaries”), and members of his IS Foundation (green projects) won 3 out of 5 of our awards. We also had our first tie for Team Goody of the Month between the IS Foundation and Social Media Club LA.
