Monday-Charity Day

Ever wonder what it would be like to have dinner with Madonna in downtown NYC? How about watch the girls on set from Sex in the City 2 all the while toasting glasses of overflowing, overpriced champagne with the likes of Anna Wintour and Naomi Campbell? In a world plastered with celebrities deemed as “untouchable,” a new internet company, CharityBuzz, is granting you a date with them at the touch of a mouse...and a hefty pocketbook. CharityBuzz takes assorted celebrity memorabilia, arranges celebrity meetings and photo ops, and auctions them off in order to raise money for their charities. Some of the charities that are included in CharityBuzz are: Andre Aggasi Charitable Foundation, Best Buddies International, Breast Cancer Research Foundation, Dream Foundation, LIFEbeat, Musicians On Call, Stand Up For A Cure, Rock the Vote, and the Rainforest Foundation-USA. Although the final bids usually start well within the six digits region, the auction includes events such as appearing on screen with Johnny Depp (final bid $91,000), spending a day in the studio with Howard Stern (final bid $101,000), or playing a game of tennis with Andre Aggasi (final bid $100,000). Now, people with a little bit of extra pocket change (or a lot) can rub elbows with their favorite celebs or sports figures at the same time as granting funds that in turn, make the world a better place. A little over the top you ask? Hey, we at Brushfire say, if you got it, flaunt it, donate it, and smile. Have YOU helped save the world today?
