Charity auction offers lunch with Apple’s Eddy Cue at the company’s new HQ

Just last month, Apple CEO Tim Cook took part in a charity auction to have lunch with the highest bidder (plus a companion) at the new Apple Park. He was able to earn over US$680,000 for the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights, which broke his previous auction earning of $610,000. This time, Charitybuzz is launching an auction to have lunch with Apple’s services head Eddy Cue at Apple Park in Cupertino, California. The proceeds will go to the National Association of Basketball Coaches Foundation in Kansas City, Missouri. Cue is known to be a longtime basketball and Golden State Warriors fan.

The auction has an estimated value of $50,000 and bids can be placed from now until June 28th at 12 p.m. Pacific Time. The lunch will be set at a mutually agreed upon date by June 30th, 2018. The winning bidder needs to be 18 years old or older. And just like with Cook’s lunch, the meal and gratuity are included but travel and accommodations aren’t. It also can’t be resold, re-auctioned, or transferred. It also won’t include a formal tour inside Apple Park and photos will not be permitted.
