The TeenNick HALO Awards is a yearly TV special that airs on TeenNick every November or December. It profiles four ordinary teens who are Helping And Leading Others (HALO). Created by chairman Nick Cannon, the show is unlike any other award shows. The HALO Awards "...flips the script and features today’s biggest celebrities giving out the awards instead of receiving them,” said Marjorie Cohn, Executive Vice President, Original Programming and Development of Nickelodeon. It profile four teens who are usually seniors in high school or has just started college, that sacrificed themselves to better the lives of others.
