OhOhOh!!! I want the journal from Alan Rickman. Unfortunately all the signed things go for way more money then I could possibly imagine spending on one item. I'm so poor!

That is so great that they did that. I love hearing about service projects celebrities do, it's wonderful that they take time to do these type of things, it really makes a difference in this world.

I support this too. I think we need to do more things for charity but we don't. I can't wait until I am out on my own I will do a lot of charity.

I think its great that they give to such a fantastic charity. I see some classic books in there which is awesome. I'm sure those with leprosy, AIDS, and HIV are really glad to have books. It's nice to see that actors really care about those less fortunate than themselves.
