'Home Plate Project' Organizer Talks About Rob

Rob's artwork in auction for the 'Home Plate Project' was sold with a bid of $6,400 (click here to all the details) and one of the organizers talked about Rob being part of the project.

"Robert heard about us through his assistant Jeff. Jeff grew up with Cory Parsons, a key member of the Home Plate Project team.”

“Bids came in from all over. There was a worldwide response due to Robert Pattinson’s participation. It’s really what got us all the attention and helped us raise all this money.”

“The fact that a superstar like Robert Pattinson was willing to take the time to do a personal sketch is amazing.”

“It took us from a good little project to something that raised over $ 50,000.”

"Emory said the actor was told when the bid hit $ 3000 and that today (9/1) his assistant texted Pattinson the final, stonker bid."
