Stars sign scooters to fight childhood obesity, celebs support skydivers to end slavery and a new Muppet visits Sesame Street to address food scarcity. Here are this week's most inspirational moments in pop culture.

Fight Childhood Obesity, Bid on a Scooter

The radio flyer has come a long way since many of us rode in the little red wagons of our youth. These days the hot ticket items sold by the company are scooters. And now lucky bidders can own a Radio Flyer Style N' Ride signed by their favorite celebrities. 

Forty stars have put pen to board, autographing the pink scooters for a worthy cause. The proceeds for the charity auction will go to the Partnership for Healthier America, which was created in conjunction with the Let's Move campaign started by First Lady Michell Obama. The goal is to help get kids exercising and staying healthy.

Each week a new batch will be up for auction to help in the fight against childhood obesity. This week's offerings include scooters signed by will.i.am, Jason Bateman, Tyler Blackburn and Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom. Check back next week for scooters signed by Cameron Diaz, Joel McHale and Rebecca Black. Week three features Ashton Kutcher and Michael "The Miz" Mizanin. Wrapping up the final batch are Fergie, Demi Lovato and One Republic.

For a complete list of participating celebrities and to bid for your board visit the eBay auction page.
