New York – Actor William Baldwin is auctioning a day on the campaign trail with Elizabeth Edwards, wife of presidential hopeful John Edwards, and a private falconry lesson with Robert Kennedy Jr. to raise funds for his mother’s foundation.
Baldwin personally lined up the VIP packages for an online auction to benefit the Carol M. Baldwin Breast Cancer Research Fund, which his mother established in 1996 after surviving the disease. Baldwin and brother Alec Baldwin sit on the board of the foundation, which provides grants to researchers.
Baldwin said he hustled friends and family – in a nice way – to book the packages, which are up for bid online at through the end of October.
Items also include a walk-on role on NBC’s “30 Rock,” which stars Baldwin’s brother Alec, and backstage passes to concerts by Melissa Etheridge and Sheryl Crow.
