Ever wonder what it would be like to go on a date with Olympic diver Tom Daley or filmmaker Dustin Lance Black? Now you have a chance to find out. The couple is giving fans a chance to win a special evening in London with the pair. All you have to do is donate!
Through Omaze, an online charity platform that gives anyone the chance to win once-in-a-lifetime experiences that also support social missions, the couple is raising money for two charities that have deep meaning to them.
For Daley, it's The Brain Tumour Charity. In 2011, the diver lost his own father to a brain tumor and about a year later, Black's older brother, Marcus, died of cancer. Prior to Marcus's death, Black made a promise to his brother, who was also gay, that they would eventually see equality all across the South.
"Recently I had the privilege of traveling with Chad Griffin and Human Rights Campaign on a tour throughout the south -- Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama," Black explains why he is raising money for HRC's Project One America. "In those community meetings it became evident marriage equality isn't the finish line. The brave, vibrant families and individuals I heard from listed among their top concerns being able to stay in the state they love and near the families they love and be safe from harm if they do come out. And it's clear how important coming out is in our struggle for full equality."
The money raised through the raffle -- it's just $10 to enter -- will be split evenly between both charities.
Watch as Daley and Black explain what this opportunity means to them both:
So what do you get if you win? An once-in-a-lifetime experience. The winning fan and a guest will get airfare to and a 4-star hotel stay in London. They will join the couple at one of Daley's diving practices followed by dinner in the heart of London.
The contest runs now until Friday, Dec. 12.
