Justin Bieber to receive award in honour of charity work

Justin Bieber's charity work is set to be honoured at an awards ceremony next week.

The singer has a long-standing relationship with the Make a Wish Foundation and he is set to receive the Champ Of Charity prize at this year's Young Hollywood Awards.

The event is taking place on Monday (July 28) and last year's winner Cody Simpson will present Bieber with the award.

The singer said on Twitter: "Honored to be receiving @yhawards "Champ of Charity" for my work with @MakeAWish- those kids are incredible! Watch Mon on @CW #yha thanks."

Cody Simpson meanwhile told HollywoodLife: "As the recipient of last year’s Champ of Charity Award, it’s an honour and a privilege to present my friend Justin Bieber with the award this year for his exemplary work with Make-A-Wish at The Young Hollywood Awards on Monday night."

In August last year, Bieber became the first person to grant 200 wishes for the Make A Wish Foundation.
