Airborne, the popular herbal supplement for common colds, is posing a very interesting proposition to Oscar winners at this Sunday’s awards ceremony. The company will donate $1 million to the charity of the actor’s choice, IF and ONLY IF, the winner brings a box of Airborne on stage during their acceptance speech and names the product. This offer only applies to the top four acting categories: Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress.
This money could obviously help A LOT of families and children who are less fortunate. A million dollars is an incredible sum, but will these winners have the clarity to endorse a product during what is sure to be the highest accolade of their professional careers? Do you think that there will be any takers?
