“I've never been so involved or hands-on with a charity,” said Eva Mendes (in Alberta Ferretti) whose navy bracelet will raise funds for The Art of Elysium. “I go to the hospitals, I visit these children and there are no cameras around, there's no press. It's really about the one on one interaction with these children who are fighting debilitating diseases,” said Mendes, who was introduced to the charity by her We Own the Night co-star, Joaquin Phoenix.
