Bid on a Dream Experience & Help the Homeless with Jon Bon Jovi & Kenneth Cole & Their "R.S.V.P. to Help Campaign" - FASHIONTRIBES FASHION BLOG

Jon Bon Jovi and Kenneth Cole recently co-hosted a benefit at Tribeca Rooftop in New York City on January 25, raising upwards of $750,000 from a live auction as part of their  R.S.V.P. to HELP campaign to help the homeless. The auction has now gone online, boasting amazing and sought-out packages, including a one-of-a-kind Saturn Outlook designed by Jon Bon Jovi and Kenneth Cole with a special exterior color in carbon flash metallic, embroidered seats with Jon Bon Jovi and Kenneth Cole logos, 19" Chrome wheels and a chrome side assist step.  It's also loaded with 3 built-in DVD players, a Jon Bon Jovi DVD and pre-loaded iPod with Bon Jovi music, as well as a Kenneth Cole "getaway package" of leather luggage, leather key ring and sunglasses.

“Once an idea becomes action, an energy is created that can be contagious. People who want to help – or who need help – get discouraged because they don’t know how to take the first step. I’m trying to make it a little easier by connecting the people with something to give with the people in need. When the connection is made, whatever town you call home becomes a better place," says Jon Bon Jovi, whose global rock icon status is offset by his commitment to the working-class community where he grew up - in addition to the more than $1,000,000 he & Kenneth Cole have raised to date for R.S.V.P to HELP. Notes Kenneth Cole: “I am honored to collaborate with Jon on such a heart-warming project as R.S.V.P. to HELP.  We have the same vision of helping those less fortunate and the partnership just works."
