One lucky fan will get the chance to spend lunch with two of the biggest stars to come out of the state of Massachusetts.
Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are partnering with Omaze in an effort to raise money to help the people of the eastern Congo through Eastern Congo Initiative, a nonprofit founded by Affleck and Whitney Williams in 2010. Donations will help provide resources and support to communities in need.
The two Academy Award winners were featured in a video promoting the campaign on Affleck's Instagram account.
"Matt and I have joined forces with @omaze to offer you the chance to come and hang out with us in Hollywood (once it’s safe to travel) and help @easterncongo & @water provide resources and support to communities in need," Affleck wrote in a post on his Instagram account.
"Over 10 years ago, Whitney Williams and I founded the @easterncongo Initiative to help support people in the region. After enduring a generation of armed conflict (and the recent struggles that the entire world has faced during this global pandemic), the people of the Democratic Republic of the Congo’s brilliance, creativity and determination shows the rest of us what's possible," Affleck added.
Entires and donations can be made on Omaze's official website here.
