    While it may seem like Miley Cyrus has been laying low since the end of her Bangerz tour last year, the pop star has actually been hard at work getting her Happy Hippie Foundation off the ground.

    According to Happy Hippie’s newly-launched Facebook and Twitter accounts, the initiative aims to rally “young people to fight injustice, starting with youth homelessness.”

    Cyrus has been outspoken about the issue of youth homelessness since she brought formerly homeless youth Jesse Helt as her date to the VMAs last August.

    Helt accepted the award for Video Of The Year on Cyrus' behalf and gave a moving speech about being young and destitute in Los Angeles.

    To raise awareness for her charity, the singer has been recording a series of small concerts in her backyard for a project titled "Happy Hippie Presents."

    Last night, she was joined by punk band Against Me!.

    Pop princess Ariana Grande also stopped by.

    As did rock legend Joan Jett.

    Two days ago the "Wrecking Ball" star recorded with Melanie Safka, the folk singer behind "What Have They Done To My Song Ma."

    No word on when the videos are set to be released but they're bound to make fans — even those that aren't hippies — very happy.
