At the iconic House of Blues on Sunset, Platinum Publicity held its “Hollywood Helping Haiti” Lounge for the 2010 Golden Globes on January 14th-15th, gifting celebrities and raising awareness for cancer and Haiti relief charities. Platinum Publicity’s wish for our globe in this new decade is an end to Cancer … What is YOUR wish that will help make our “Globe Golden”?
Platinum Publicity's charity & gift table.
Making Our Globe Golden
Since it’s the first month of a new decade, Platinum Publicity’s Golden Globes lounge is focusing on positive change in the world. Because of this goal, celebrity guests signed and decorated “Golden Globes wishes for a Golden Globe” t-shirts, on which they made a wish for a change they would like to see this decade to make our world a better place (such as an end to war, a greener world, the cure for Cancer…or even a diet that actually works!). Celebrity t-shirts were donated to Stand Up to Cancer. Celebrities also autographed the sign-in board and other items donated to the charity. For every celebrity that attended the lounge, a donation was made to the charity in honor of him or her.
