Rent A Celebrity Date For Charity

Thu, 26 Feb 2009 12:30:00 +0000

Rent A Date For Charity is a fun new website founded by a brain tumor sufferer that offers everyday people and celebrities the unique opportunity to put themselves up for auction to the highest bidder with proceeds going to charity.

In 2006, at the age of 27, Lisa Connell was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. Since then she has found through her own personal experience that there is little known about the research, treatments and information available surrounding the illness and it’s cause. Therefore from Lisa’s own battle with the illness she has made it her personal mission to raise £1 million pounds for charity through the business she has created Rent A Date For Charity.

Users of RDC must be fully registered to be able to access the auction pages and participate in the online auction and prize draw competitions – you never know… you could even win a ‘Meet & Greet’ with a celebrity!

Family Fun Days For Everyone This Weekend

Fri, 19 Sep 2008 12:30:00 +0000

Two charity events are taking place on opposite sides of the Atlantic this weekend.

New Yorkers who want to get on their bikes can join Full Metal Jacket star Matthew Modine on his Bicycle For A Day campaign. The 49-year-old will be among cyclists pedaling off from lower Manhattan’s South Street Seaport on Saturday, September 20, to raise awareness of the need to reduce carbon emissions and to demonstrate the many simple things that each of us can do everyday to accomplish a cleaner world.

“The idea behind my project Bicycle for a Day is to help people understand that there is something they can do,” he said. “In fact, just one simple thing they can do every day to become part of the solution. If everybody does this one thing, the cumulative effect could be tremendous. The environmental situation is a great opportunity for us all to work together to find solutions. Bicycle for a Day is just that – citizens of the world joining together globally and acting locally.”
