The SAG Foundation was started in 1985 with the mission to assist, educate, and inspire actors. They contribute to such causes as BooksPAL, a volunteer program in which actors read aloud to elementary school children, Storyline Online to increase literacy and excitement about books via the Internet, and We The Children, a foundation that teaches children self-confidence through literacy by giving them the opportunity to write and illustrate their family story.
Currently, with the help of Clothes Off Our Back and lots of generous SAG contributors, we are running some fabulous auctions to benefit the SAG Foundation. For example, our sweet Lifetime Achievement Honoree, Betty White, signed and donated some personal memoribilia, including her book, Here We Go Again. Some of my favorite auctions are this special edition Crazy Heart photobook - signed by Bad Blake himself, Jeff Bridges, a visit to the set of E! News, dinner for four at Suzanne Goin's revered restaurant Lucques, and this huge bottle of the special Screen Actor's Guild Awards Cuvee by Dry Creek Vineyards.
Check out all our auctions and start bidding! Remember, auctions close on January 29, 2010 (staggered endings starting at 5pm PST). Good luck!
