If you’re a fan of the TV series “Castle” this is an opportunity you won’t want to miss.  Executive Producer/Director Rob Bowman has generously donated not one but two set visits to benefit The Reational Center in Los Angeles..

The set visit will last approximately 3 hours and will take place at some point between March 30 and April 9, 2010 during an episode that Rob is directing. The exact date will be worked out between the winners and the production company.  While it is likely that the winners and guests will encounter the stars filming that day, it is not possible to guarantee that winners will meet them.  Transportation to Los Angeles is not provided (however bidding is welcome from those outside the area.). All winners and guests must be over 18 years of age and be U.S. citizens.

The Relational Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit public charity whose mission is to increase diversity in the helping professions and to expand access to culturally competent counseling, coaching and consulting for individuals, families, organizations and communities.

IBG is acting as “host” for these auctions.  In 2008, IBG established an official non-profit campaign focusing on utilizing the power of philanthropy through the arts to benefit a wide range of charities worldwide. IBG acts as a “fundraiser facilitator” for underfunded and start-up charities that would otherwise struggle with the logistics and costs associated with event fundraising.

There is a signed photo of Castle’s Nathan Fillion up for auction by The PEACE Fund, a charity created by Adrian Paul (Highlander) to Protect, Educated, and Aid Children Everywhere.

This is a one-of-a-kind autographed photo of Nathan taken by British journalist John Mosby, which Nathan signed with the Highlander motto of “There Can Be Only One.”

Proceeds from the auction will support Haiti relief efforts.
