Variety’s 4th Annual Power of Youth 2010 event was held on Sunday October 24th at Paramount Studios in Los Angeles and Justin Bieber was among this year’s honored guests. Bieber has been very active with Pencils of Promise – the wonderful group that promotes change through education starting with the simple promise of a pencil.

Justin had more than pencils to hand out tonight though. The 16 year-old pop star is performing a sold-out show at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Monday night and the generous Bieber reserved 500 tickets to give away for kids to come and have a good time and forget their troubles for a night. JB said via his twitter:

“heard there are a lot of kids at this event who havent had it easy. I know what that is like so i got some surprises. Now out in Ontario getting ready for the show but want to say thank u to @Variety for the Power of Youth ceremony 2day. Best part was I got to surprise the charities being honored. My show tomorrow at the Staples Center in LA is sold out but… …We saved 500 tickets to give 100 each to each charity being honored to give to kids in need and let them have a fun night they deserve. I know what its like to have some tough times so I hope those tickets make u kids coming smile a little. Gonna be a fun show. Thanks.”

That’s a great thing for Justin to do!
