Jonas Brothers Top List of Celebrity Fund Raisers

Looking to get a hot musical act for your gala or other fund-raising event? It seems the Jonas Brothers are the best ticket.

The pop trio, who are perhaps best described as this generation’s Partridge Family, lead a list of the top celebrity fund raisers, according to Charity Folks, an organization that operates online auctions with entertainers to raise money for nonprofit causes.

Charity Folks says the three brothers garnered $450,000 for their charity, the Change for the Children Foundation, with an auction that sold VIP tickets to concerts and opportunities to meet the band.

In second place was Billy Joel, who raised $400,000. Bruce Springsteen took third with $300,000.

Which of these performers would you prefer to have at your event?

As generous as they are, I don’t think I’d have them for our non-profit. During a half-time show at a recent Seahawks football game they were awful, off tune, squeaky like their voices were still changing, flat, etc… must have been an off day for them. Anyway, I’d take BILLY JOEL for a fundraiser for our Senior Center…the ladies would love it!
