Patrick Dempsey suited up for a very important cause last night. The Gray’s Anatomy star attended Ferrari’s charity auction of it’s 1st Ferrari 458 Italia in North America at Fleur de Lys hotel on March 18, 2010 in Los Angeles, California.
Hollywood A listers including Jeremy Renner, Aaron Eckhart, Malin Akerman, Molly Sims and Olivia Munn had the opportunity to bid on items like Ferrari Formula One driver Fernando Alonso’s racing suit (which raised $31,000) and two chances to work as Scuderia team members at the Canadian Gran Prix in Montreal next June (which went for $20,000 and $21,000).
The item of the night was the first Ferrari 458 Italia to arrive in the United States and it sold for $530,000! By the end of the night, this extravagant auction raised $601,000!!!
According to Kilometer, funds will be distributed to two organizations with substantial records for social responsibility and results. The Catholic Medical Mission Board and the William J. Clinton Foundation will work to help rebuild Haiti and to bring medical care to communities there. Additionally, the University of Modena, with which Ferrari has a long relationship, will offer assistance and resources to the CMMB to aid in training the Haitian medical community.
