Keanu Reeves Auctioning Off 15-Minute Zoom Date For Children's Cancer Charity

Keanu Reeves is auctioning off a 15-minute virtual date over Zoom to raise money for a children's cancer charity.

The Matrix star —- who is in a relationship with visual artist Alexandra Grant — is giving one lucky fan the chance to spend 15 minutes with him on a virtual date over video calling app Zoom, providing they are the highest bidder in his auction for children's cancer charity Camp Rainbow Gold.

The organisation is holding a series of auctions for star-studded experiences in order to raise money for their mission, which they state as being to "provide emotionally empowering experiences to Idaho's children diagnosed with cancer and their families".

The auction opens on June 15 at 12pm PST (June 16, 3am Singapore time), and will close on June 22.

Alongside the date with the 55-year-old actor, bidders will be able to put a bid on a 15-minute private Zoom concert from Fifth Harmony's Ally Brooke, and a guitar signed by Andy Grammer.

Other items on offer include a Hugo Boss bag, a set of artisan wines, several spa days, and a custom design tattoo.

As of the time of writing, Keanu's date — which is valued at US$10,000 (S$14,000) — is currently at a bid of US$16,400.

The description for the date reads: " A Little One-on-One with Keanu.
