The Prize

Please note: This lot closed on our platform on August 9th, 2018 at 12:00pm EDT but was part of a live auction on August 10th. For questions visit our help center.

Be one of the few people on earth to go through this unique astronaut training. What you'll feel is like nothing else on our planet—the true weightless experience, exactly as in space.

You'll take off from Miami in Florida in a uniquely designed aircraft for your weightless flight. You'll join the likes of Buzz Aldrin, Stephen Hawkings and Richard Branson, who've experienced this trip in the very same aircraft.

As part of your trip you'll also get to meet and have lunch with a current NASA astronaut, as well as have a tour of NASA's Cape Canaveral.

Your trip includes a 4-night stay in a luxury hotel in Miami and transfers to Cape Canaveral.

The Cause

The Italian Committee for UNICEF (UNICEF Italia) is part of the overall structure of UNICEF - United Nations Fund for Children, the UN subsidiary organ that is appointed to protect and promote the rights of girls, children (aged 0-18) and adolescents all over the world, and to contribute to the improvement of their living conditions.

Our organization is therefore both a non-governmental organization (NGO) that is part of the growing third sector in Italy and a representative of an intergovernmental program of the United Nations. In keeping up with the rest of the organization, even UNICEF Italy's actions are inspired by the principles of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, as well as the Millennium Development Goals.

The Italian Committee for UNICEF is a well-organized, professional structure with a vast network of volunteers throughout the country.
