Star-Studded Event Supports 4-Star Charities

Last week, on Earth Day, Christie's Auction House held a Green Charity auction. At the event, host Chevy Chase told the audience that all the proceeds of the auction would go to charities that were given 4-stars by Charity Navigator. Attendees got to bid on amazing items including a round of golf with President Bill Clinton, a private walking tour of NYC's famous Union Square Greenmarket and lunch with Mario Batali, and a trip of a lifetime.

The following 4-star charities were the lucky recipients of the $2 million raised at the auction, "A Bid to Save the Earth:"

• Natural Resources Defense Council



• Central Park Conservancy



• Oceana



• Conservation International
