The gala is where some of GO Campaign’s biggest supporters and Local Heroes come together in celebration of the life-changing opportunities given to orphans and vulnerable children around the world. It’s our biggest event of the year and guests have the opportunity to meet Local Heroes and mingle with social activists, philanthropists, and celebrities alike. It is a night of fine dining, good company, and memorable performances from the likes of Ewan McGregor, Melissa Etheridge, FKA Twigs and the Recycled Orchestra, and Cirque du Soleil performers. Guests have included Robert Pattinson, Katy Perry, Kate Hudson, Vin Diesel, Sumner Redstone and Jodie Foster, just to name a few. It’s a night that changes the lives of children around the world and every guest is an important part of the evening’s success.
Here are new UHQ pictures of Robert Pattinson at the GO GO Gala last week
@thegocampaign just shared these amazing pictures of Rob from the Go Go Gala on Twitter and they’ll be releasing even more pictures when donations for the #SharetheGOLove campaign reach 14k!

Bravo Robert Pattinson for using your celebrity to help the Go Campaign to give the world’s children a brighter future and by continuing to contribute generously, as recently as the Nov. 14 GO GO Gala, by bidding with enthusiasm at the night’s live auction.
More than 200 guests – Pattinson included – converged on the Bel-Air Bay Club in the Pacific Palisades for the charity’s annual Gala. Combining ticket and auction sales, the affair raised more than $500,000 to help children in need everywhere by providing them with homes, education, rehabilitation, safety from sex trafficking and more.

Former US Senate aide, attorney and script writer Scott Fifer – whose TV writing credits include two Primetime Emmy broadcasts – said he first launched the charity after traveling to Tanzania and meeting a group of orphans. Through a network of “local heroes,” who understand the needs of their communities, the Go Campaign has since helped more than 41,000 children. The varied projects have included a girls’ school in Siem Reap, Cambodia, funded thanks to Pattinson.
“I can’t forget what Rob Pattinson did for us that had tremendous impact,” Fifer said from onstage. “Two years ago, Rob generously donated a ‘meet & greet’ on the set of ’Twilight Breaking Dawn’ for our online auction. And so we put it on Charity Buzz (charitybuzz.com) and it sold to a woman in Chicago for $80,000.”
After recounting the success of the girls’ home, Fifer added, “So Rob, there are 25 girls in Cambodia who wouldn’t forgive me if I didn’t just say thank you. Thank you for your kindness.”
So was the meet & greet worth $80,000 to the buyer? Apparently so.
In a subsequent conversation, Fifer said that same woman later paid handsomely for an advance screening of the film.
Attending the Gala with friends, Pattinson (in a goatee**) bought himself a cello – made from trash found in a landfill – from the Recycled Orchestra of Cateura, Paraguay, with his bid of $5,600.
