Roger has received over 80 requests in the past year for the use of Give a Little Bit to be used in different TV Shows, films, for charities raising funds trying to help people. It's been used by the Red Cross, United Way and even the Make a Wish Foundation.
Mentoring the Canadian Idols
"One of the ways to get back Home to our hearts is through the gift of giving back,
giving our love & care to others."
In true keeping with the message of his timeless hit “Give a Little Bit”, Roger Hodgson is giving back. He is always doing service in different forms and on the Canadian tour he’s been doing it in the form of mentoring. After his performance and mentoring on the Canadian Idol show in August, Roger was deeply touched by the young hopefuls and realized the challenges that lay ahead for them. He invited several of them, whose hometowns he was touring in, to come for continued mentoring and to spend the day with him and watch and learn and join him as a special guest on stage. They were all very grateful and learned so much.
Honoring the Big Brothers / Big Sisters organizations
Through his experiences of mentoring, Roger has really been appreciating the value of mentoring, and has also been inviting people from the Big Brothers / Big Sisters organization across Canada to come for free as his guest to many of his shows. He has been honoring and appreciating people who are giving their time to mentor and support our young people who really need it.

“Never underestimate the difference a smile from the heart can make in this world. “The Tsunami tragedy has brought up a lot of feelings for all of us. One of the ways I have found to help with fear and sadness is to share a smile and show that I care. “When I do this from my heart to people I meet in my life, I feel better, happier and stronger inside. “For those who can, now is the time to reach out and give of our time at one of the local organizations in town. And also know that simply smiling and showing that we care makes a big difference in the world. Lots of kids are showing up and helping in many different ways. “Giving a little bit of our love, sharing a smile, and showing that we care is a basic teaching in life. And I believe even those that live halfway around the globe can somehow feel the love we give to them from our hearts.” | Hurricane Katrina Relief See how kids are continuing to make a difference all over the world.
