"Robert heard about us through his assistant Jeff. Jeff grew up with Cory Parsons, a key member of the Home Plate Project team.”

“Bids came in from all over. There was a worldwide response due to Robert Pattinson’s participation. It’s really what got us all the attention and helped us raise all this money.”
“The fact that a superstar like Robert Pattinson was willing to take the time to do a personal sketch is amazing.”
“It took us from a good little project to something that raised over $ 50,000.”
"Emory said the actor was told when the bid hit $ 3000 and that today (9/1) his assistant texted Pattinson the final, stonker bid."

Rob's Unfinished City was sold for $6,400!!!
In the home stretch is was CRAZY! Aside from doubling the weeks long stagnant bid of $3,000 in the final hours, the one-of-a-kind artwork went up by $2,000 in the final minutes.
Congratulations to the winner and we hope it's a devoted Rob fan. Either way, the artwork raised a nice amount of money for a worthy cause, Ozanam Manor, championed by the Home Plate Project - Arizona Diamondbacks' fundraising program (D-backs Give Back).

Rob is a giver and this time, he's giving back to the Arizona Diamondbacks through their charity project, Home Plate Project. ClickHERE if you missed our first post explaining the cause but here's a quick recap on Rob's involvement, along with a couple more details:
  • Rob's assistant, Jeff,  who knows one of the HPP team members, asked Rob to donate to the Home Plate Project and Rob was more than excited to do so. 
  • The home plate was shipped to Rob and was then sent back about a month ago.
  • Rob created a one-of-a-kind, art piece, sketched in pencil and titled it Unfinished City.
  • The artwork is on a legitimate, wooden home plate that has been painted white. 
  • Rob's plate is being displayed in Arizona with the CEO of the Diamondbacks, Derrick Hall's home plate donation. 
  • While bidding was at $150 less than 24 hours ago before the project was spread through the fandom, it is currently at $2525 and rising! Rob's plate is also currently the highest bid plate.

The Home Plate Project team sent over some better image of Rob's donation as well as the autographed photo that is included in the bid. They will see if they can gather more information about Rob's inspiration but they had this to say: "We're just thankful and grateful that he stepped up like he did and the finished product that you see is from his hands and vision."

We're grateful and thankful, too, that Rob has shared another side of his many talents and for a worthy cause, Ozanam Manor.
