Isn’t he sweet? He’s such a good-doer. He’s smart, he’s funny, he’s harry, he gives to charity, wait a minute. The hair only appeals to me because I’m Persian, well, not really, that’s gross. But the reality is that Will is actually auctioning off a cameo to help his old USC fraternity brother’s charity, The Criag Pollard’s Cancer for College Foundation.

Criag is a two-time Hodgkin’s disease survivor and started the foundation for current and former cancer patients. The fund has already awarded $200,000 dollars since 1993.

Hopefully with Will’s endorsement and online auction, it will bring that number up a lot higher. Online bidding started yesterday and will close on September 26th. The winner will be announced on September 27th and they will join Will at the 14th annual Cancer for College golf tournament dinner at Temecula Creek Inn.

The opening bid today was $5,000, and as I’m currently writing this story, it’s at $19,000. This is insane. For more info check out the Cancer for College website.

When Will was asked about the auction, he said, “What a perfect Christmas present for your son or daughter. It is the surefire way to win the parent-of-the-year award. Support this amazing cause, by buying them me.”

How sweet. Tear.
