OUE Skyspace LA & GBK Productions Hosted their Inaugural “Naughty or Nice Giving Event” for the Holiday Season
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) December 08, 2016 -- GBK, the luxury lifestyle gift lounge and special events company, Bidding for Good, and OUE Skyspace LA partnered up for their first Holiday ‘Giving’ lounge. For the first time ever, GBK also opened its prestigious gift lounge to the public. The one caveat was they had to bid on the opportunity to attend with one of the many “Nice” celebrities agreeing to partake. The “Naughty” celebrities will remain undisclosed at this time. Special thanks to Song Writer, John West, who won this priceless opportunity and donated over $10,000 to Children’s Hospital LA, Hatian Hero, and Planned Parenthood.
A variety of causes were highlighted at the event with the intention to promote awareness, in addition to raising money for these diverse organizations in time for the holiday season. The on-site charity beneficiaries included:
Toys for Tots - Toys for Tots is a program run by the United States Marine Corps Reserve which distributes toys to children whose parents cannot afford to buy them gifts for Christmas. HASBRO was kind enough to send hundreds of toys, including their Star Wars BladeBuilders Spin-Action Lightsaber and Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War Miniverse figures!
