Win a Lunch Date With 'Lost' Star Evangeline Lilly

evangelinelilly.jpgYou really can find anything on eBay these days, folks. Lost actress (better known as Kate) Evangeline Lilly is auctioning off three lunch dates with herself in Honolulu, Vancouver, and Los Angeles in support of the GO Campaign. According to the foundation's website, the campaign is "dedicated to empowering orphans and vulnerable children throughout the world to secure a better future."

In an impassioned video on the auction site, Lilly talks about her own personal work with orphans and widows in Rwanda. It is clear from her words that this is a matter that is near and dear to her heart: "All of the proceeds will be going towards helping widows and orphans in Rwanda. I have been contributing to work there for many years, and it's something that's near and dear to my heart. I would appreciate it very much if  any of you out there are willing to partner with me to try to help the children and the less fortunate that I have been trying to help in Rwanda. I look forward to meeting any of you who win the auctions and sitting down with you over a great lunch and talking with you until we're blue in the face about anything that you want: Lost questions, industry questions ... So bid big, and I can't wait to see you."

For any true Lost fans, this would be a great opportunity to get some inside scoop on the show's upcoming — and much-hyped — sixth season (the first five minutes of which hit the Internet today). Bidding on the lunches has now reached above $2,100, so one would have to be a true fan. Remember though: Evangeline Lilly's heart is clearly in a good place, so why shouldn't yours be? And who knows, you two might really hit it off.
