ELLEN DEGENERES TO RECEIVE FOURTH ANNUAL PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARD FOR FAVORITE HUMANITARIAN

The People's Choice Awards announced today that Ellen DeGeneres will receive the fourth annual People's Choice Award for Favorite Humanitarian, presented by Walgreens, during the live awards show from the Microsoft Theater on Wednesday, Jan. 6 (9:00-11:00 PM, ET/delayed PT) on the CBS Television Network.

"I am so honored to be receiving the People's Choice Humanitarian Award. I think it sums me up perfectly as I am both a human and an itarian," stated DeGeneres.

DeGeneres was chosen as this year's honoree in recognition of her tireless efforts to help communities in need and bring awareness to organizations and charities that are making a difference in people's lives. As the recipient of the Favorite Humanitarian Award, DeGeneres has selected St. Jude Children's Research Hospital as the beneficiary of the annual donation presented by Walgreens. Additionally, for every CoverGirl, Pantene, Crest and Oral-B 3DWhite product sold at Walgreens, Walgreens.com, or Duane Reade between Jan. 6 and Jan. 9, Walgreens will make a $1 donation to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

St. Jude is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20 percent to more than 80 percent since it opened more than 50 years ago. St. Jude is working to drive the overall survival rate for childhood cancer to 90 percent, and won't stop until they eliminate childhood cancer entirely.

Walgreens, the official retail sponsor of PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARDS 2016, is once again presenting the award for Favorite Humanitarian in conjunction with the company's purpose to champion everyone's right to be happy and healthy. Past winners of the award include Sandra Bullock in 2013 in recognition of her work with the Warren Easton High School in New Orleans, Jennifer Hudson in 2014 to honor her work with the Julian D. King Gift Foundation and Ben Affleck in 2015 to recognize his work with the Eastern Congo Initiative.

DeGeneres is a 15-time People's Choice Awards winner and a nominee again in 2016 for Favorite Talk Show Host, putting her in contention to become tied for the most People's Choice Award wins in the 42 year history of the franchise.

Voting for PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARDS 2016 has closed for most categories, except for Favorite New TV Comedy and Favorite New TV Drama, which will remain open until the night of the show on www.PeoplesChoice.com.

Tickets to the PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARDS 2016 show are available for fans to purchase through AXS.com.

ABOUT ST. JUDE CHILDREN RESEARCH HOSPITAL

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. It is the only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center devoted solely to children.

St. Jude is working to drive the overall survival rate for childhood cancer to 90 percent, and we won't stop until no child dies from cancer. St. Jude freely shares the discoveries it makes, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.
