Uh…A New Idea for a Stewardship Campaign?!
Check out this story from Reuters:
A Chilean prostitute has auctioned 27 hours of sex to raise money for the country’s largest charity during an annual fund-raising campaign.
Maria Carolina became an overnight celebrity in the conservative Roman Catholic country, making news headlines and appearing on talk shows since she made her unusual donation to the televised charity event, which runs for 27 hours starting on Friday evening.
‘I’ve already auctioned off the 27 hours of love,’ Maria Carolina told Reuters on Wednesday, saying she had raised about $4,000. ‘One of my clients already paid. It seemed like a good deed to him.’
Adult prostitution is legal in Chile. Chile’s two-day Telethon fundraiser is endorsed by television stars and aims to raise funds for poor, disabled children.
Speaking about Maria Carolina’s unusual donation, campaign organizer Mario Kreutzberger said he would not encourage ‘immoral’ activities, but said he would accept her pledge.
I suppose that a story like this this requires no commentary from yours truly.
