Curry & Buffett Lunch Fetches $9M for Charity
15 May
Summary
- An anonymous bidder paid over $9 million for a lunch with Stephen Curry and Warren Buffett.
- The winning bid will benefit GLIDE and the Eat.Learn.Play. Foundation.
- This marks the revival of Buffett's annual charity lunch tradition.
A private lunch with NBA icon Stephen Curry and investing legend Warren Buffett recently sold for over $9 million via an eBay auction. The anonymous winner secured this unique opportunity for $9,000,100.
The highly anticipated lunch is slated for next month in Omaha, Nebraska, Buffett's hometown. Buffett has committed to matching the winning bid, doubling the impact for two vital charities.
Proceeds will support the GLIDE Foundation, a San Francisco-based homeless charity long backed by Buffett, and the Eat.Learn.Play. Foundation, co-founded by Stephen and Ayesha Curry. The Currys expressed deep gratitude, noting the power of collaboration across generations and institutions.
This event signifies the return of Buffett's annual charity lunch, which previously raised over $53 million for GLIDE across more than two decades. The tradition was paused after 2022, but has now been revived with the Curry's participation.
