who remembers Michael's charity auction from Sep. 2002 for the victims of the flood in Germany?

Here some information in german:

https://web.archive.org/web/2003122...iegel/aktionen/286302-hintergrund-279112.html

Michael signed about 40 Cds/DVDs/Napkins for charity.

I am missing all the pictures of his signatures. Does anyone remember this???


Please help!
 
I didn’t know about the auction, but there’s a documentary about the German family he invited to Neverland. :)

That's nice, but how is it relevant to this thread?

The charity auction is in the documentary, and the documentary is mentioned in the article that Glanni linked to. :)

The family&#8217;s invitation was part of Michael&#8217;s charity efforts related to the flood. Michael helping the flood victims was actually a huge thing here in Germany.

MDR 1 RADIO SACHSEN reported
Four Saxons visiting Michael Jackson in the USA

"Shake hands with Michael Jackson in person ..."

This dream became a reality for the Wolf family from Meissen. The family affected by the flood in August last year traveled to the USA at the invitation of Michael Jackson to visit the mega-star there personally.

How does Michael Jackson live? Are there really alligators and elephants, private trains and ferris wheels in the park at his "Neverland Ranch"? And what exactly is it about the global headlines about the "King of Pop"?

MDR 1 RADIO SACHSEN reported in detail in the program about the unique encounter between the Wolf family and Michael Jackson at the Neverland ranch.

Michael Jackson signed CD's and DVD's for Saxon flood victims in Las Vegas

How did you come into contact with Michael Jackson?

In order to help the people affected by the flood, the "King of Pop" in Las Vegas spontaneously bought 12 CDs and 2 DVDs at the end of August, individually signed together with two large cloth napkins and made available exclusively to the MDR LANDESFUNKHAUS SACHSEN. It was the personal concern of the world star to have these auctioned on the Internet for the benefit of the flood victims in Saxony. In addition, he wanted to surprise a family that was particularly hard hit by the aftermath of the flood with an invitation to the USA.

As part of the big benefit gala "We say thank you" by the MDR LANDESFUNKHAUS SACHSEN on September 8, 2002, Michael Jackson also gave courage to the victims of the flood disaster in a video message.

Successful internet auction at mdr.de

Interested parties were able to take part in the Internet auction for a week at the beginning of September 2002. An offer that has been widely used not only in Saxony and Germany, but worldwide. The mdr.de editors recorded more than 8,000 hits for the Michael Jackson articles during the auction period. Top runners among the highest bids for the coveted individual pieces were the special edition CD "Thriller" and a napkin hand-signed with "LOVE" at 450 euros each. The total proceeds of the auction went to "Sachsen hilft e.V." benefit.

PROGRAM TIP:
"Holidays with Michael Jackson - the dream trip of the Wolf family" - the SachsenSpiegel report on July 9, 2003, 8:15 pm, on MDR TELEVISION.
