Actress Nikki Reed is using her Twilight platform for a great cause — urging teens to collect school supplies for less fortunate students. More than 13 million kids cannot afford the basic supplies need for back-to-school and Nikki hopes to change that, addressing students in a new PSA! 

DoSomething.org and Staples are teaming up with Nikki for the 3rd Annual National Staples/Do Something 101 School Supply Drive.
