The Elephant Project is an organization to raise money and awareness for the Alzheimer’s Association. There is a phrase that says “elephants never forget,” and in the fight against Alzheimer’s, we are striving for those affected to “never forget.” Because of the elephant’s connection to the cause, we have celebrities pose for a photo with an elephant beanie baby, which are then auctioned off with an autograph and a beanie. Tons of celebrities have already joined the cause and we have a bunch of auctions live right now. Jennifer Garner participated in the project a couple of years ago, but we were lucky enough to have her sign another card to be auctioned off with her picture! Her auction is up on eBay right now along with 33 others.

“That was a really bad joke,” Garner told Nelson, although she seemed to be laughing herself.

The tabloid press coined the term “Bennifer” to describe Hollywood supercouple Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez.

Affleck and Lopez canceled their wedding plans at the last minute. Affleck later married Garner and the couple were dubbed by some as a new “Bennifer.” Affleck was not at Wednesday’s event. … read more »

Actor and Save the Children Artist Ambassador Jennifer Garner, her mother and former school teacher Pat Garner, and Save the Children’s Mark Shriver will launch the 2009 “State of the World’s Mothers” report, which presents alarming findings on the lack of adequate early childhood education across the country and around the world.
