RFK Center Charity Auction

Hugh Laurie, star of the FOX hit HOUSE has put his character Dr. Gregory Houses iconic cane up for auction online at www.charitybuzz.com/rfk to benefit the RFK Center for Justice and Human Rights, a non-profit international human rights advocacy group founded by the friends and family of Robert Kennedy to carry on his legacy (see full release below).
The current bid for the cane and set visit is $20,500. In addition to the signed cane, the winner will get to meet Mr. Laurie, and the rest of the cast of HOUSE at a filming next season and take home a signed script.
