Yes, this weekend was all about the Game of Thrones finale! But, in the off chance that you’re actually interested in other things happening (in real life), we have a round-up of charitable events that the celebs hit up — it’ll give you the warm fuzzies all over.

From Tina Lawson to Anthony Anderson, folks stepped out over the weekend to give back and make a difference. Mrs. Lawson, alongside Vivica A. Fox, Holly Robinson Peete, Vanessa Bell Calloway, Cookie Johnson and more, attended the 11th Annual “A Pink Pump Affair” luncheon at The Beverly Hilton Hotel. The event is a gala fundraiser, fashion show, and Women of Distinction Awards, benefiting children and families affected by autism and related developmental disorders.
