Bono organized a charity auction along with artist Damien Hirst on Valentine's day. The auction raised $42 million and 100% of the proceeds will go to HIV/AIDS relief programs in Africa run by the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. Its great that people are using their celebrity to raise money for people in need. Items sold include a decorated steel and glass pill cabinet titled "Where There's A Will There's A Way" that sold for $7.15 million! If people are going to spend that much on art, then its great that the money is going to aid the sick and hungry instead of people who are already well-off.
