Why don't we have charity auctions like this one over here?

KISS ME KATE - MOSS SNOGS JEMIMA FOR 60 SECS
By Mirror.co.uk
KATE MOSS stunned guests at a celebrity auction last night by snogging the face off Hugh Grant's girlfriend Jemima Khan.
Millionaire Bhs boss Philip Green stumped up £60,000 for a "Kiss Me Kate" item in the celeb-studded event. But after puckering up for a peck on the cheek he offered the kiss to the person he outbid - Jemima.
Kate got stuck in, according to fellow guests, and ended up snogging Jemima for a full-on 60 seconds.
The auction and dinner was held at Annabel's in central London in aid of the Hoping Foundation for Palestinian refugee children.
A game of golf with Hugh Grant, with jemima as caddy, went for £12,000. Other lots included a cricket lesson from Imran Khan, tea with the Archbishop of Canterbury and a children's bedtime story read by Narnia actress Tilda Swinton.
The event raised more than £200,000.
