In September 2006, heiress Paris Hilton was arrested and charged with driving under the influence. Hilton's driver’s license was subsequently suspended, and in January 2007 she pled no contest to the alcohol-related reckless driving charge. On February 27, 2007 Hilton was caught driving 70 MPH in a 35 MPH zone with a suspended license. Hilton was sentenced to 45 days in jail for violating her probation, and she is required to begin her jail term June 5, 2007. (source: Wikipedia)

The Paris Hilton Jailathon is an independently run charity fundraising project. The idea behind this site is simple: Those who wish to make a positive difference in the world may pledge “x” amount of dollars per day that Paris Hilton serves in jail to any charitable cause of their choice. Large or small, the amount of money you pledge does not matter as much as your proactive choice to help others in need.

To make your pledge, simply click on the “Pledge Here” link located above. No money will be collected by this site. If for whatever reason a pledger decides not to donate after the Jailathon is over, they will incur no penalty. However, we sincerely hope this is not a common occurrence. When Paris Hilton is released from jail, an e-mail will be sent to all who pledged, reminding them to mail their donation check directly to the charitable organization they selected.

The Paris Hilton Jailathon hopes to prove once and for all that the world really is a better place with Paris Hilton behind bars.
