Hunt Sells Off Dinner Date To Raise Cash For Chicago Hospital
By WENNSunday, October 4, 2009
Actress BONNIE HUNT has helped to raise $120,000 (£80,000) for a Chicago, Illinois medical centre by offering one fan the chance to dine with her.
The Jerry Maguire star agreed to whisk the highest bidder in a hospital charity auction off to Los Angeles to attend a TV taping of The Bonnie Hunt Show before joining Hunt on a dinner date.
The experience sold for thousands when the sale went live earlier this week (begs28Sep09) and Hunt is delighted.
She says, “I went to Chicago and spent some time at the Northwestern Brain Tumor Institute.
“We did an auction to fly the winner out to see the Bonnie Hunt Show and I’d have dinner with them. It went for $120,000!”
