The fourth annual Lunch With A Leader online celebrity auction began this weekend (10th February) and runs through until February 20th on eBay.
Through Lunch With A Leader, dozens of celebrities donate an hour of their time to be auctioned off with proceeds to benefit Communities In Schools, the nation's largest dropout prevention organization.
The high bidder wins a memorable lunch or a great piece of memorabilia, including OGIO backpacks autographed by sports stars and a basketball autographed by Earvin "Magic" Johnson. Many stars of music, TV and sport are auctioning off their time on ebay to raise funds, including hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons.
Alicia Keys, and Patti LaBelle are among the artists participating in the auction, along with Dan Glickman, the Motion Picture Association of America's chairman and CEO; Ron Meyer, president and COO of Universal Studios; and Richard Lovett, president of Creative Artists Agency.
"It is very reassuring to know that we can rely upon our friends in the entertainment industry to assist us in our mission of keeping kids in school," said Bill Milliken, founder and vice chairman of Communities In Schools. "The dropout issue has become a large problem in the United States and these leaders are helping make a difference in children's lives."
