Hollywood Showcases the Glitz, Glamour and Goodwill with Copies of Do Your Giving While You Are Living By Edie Fraser & Robyn Spizman
Whether you give time, talents or treasures, the time to give is now.
(1888PressRelease) February 18, 2009 - It's Hollywood's most glamorous awards show, even in a year when many have faced economic stress. The night of the Academy Awards remains a time honored celebration for celebrities whose stars are shining bright and provided a much needed escape from our everyday lives. While many believe it is an honor "just to be nominated," receiving the Everyone Wins at the Oscars Gift Bag is intended to soften the blow those going home without the golden trophy. In an effort to acknowledge many of the country's current struggles, Lash Fary, founder of Distinctive Assets, is making it even easier for these actors to support some amazing charities while enjoying their fabulous gifts. This year's coveted gift bag includes a copy of the New York Times best-seller Do Your Giving While You Are Living: Inspirational Lessons On What You Can Do Today To Make A Difference Tomorrow (Morgan James Publishing 2008) co-authored by Edie Fraser and Robyn Spizman.
Co-authors diversity and philanthropic leader Edie Fraser and best-selling author and national media personality Robyn Spizman are on a mission to convince Americans of their opportunity—and obligation—to support those who are less fortunate. In Do Your Giving While You Are Living, Fraser and Spizman interviewed some of the top executives in corporations, non-profit organizations, technology, education, retail and philanthropy and asked for their examples and insights on how to make everyone's life better by making someone else's life brighter. Whether you give time, talents or treasures, the time to give is now.
In addition to a copy of Do Your Giving While You Are Living, each gift bag includes items from companies who have managed to survive the tough year while still providing jobs and quality products/services. Additionally, when giving back is on the minds of so many, each celebrity recipient will have the ability to choose their favorite item and donate it to a great charity. Distinctive Assets will coordinate the return of the celebrity donation, along with a note of authentication so that it can be auctioned off to raise money for the selected causes.
When the last winner has made their speech...when the lights have been turned out at the Kodak Theater Auditorium...when the parties have finally come to an end...that's when the real fun begins. It’s time to tally up the SWAG, which this year means, Stuff We All Give.
