Attention, Lovers of Schmidt: now is your chance to win a date (OK, a day) with Max Greenfield! The New Girl actor (and perennial Jewcy fave) is offering potential wives fans an opportunity hang out, work out, and visit the New Girl set in L.A. All you gotta do is make a donation to Chrysalis, a nonprofit dedicated to breaking the poverty cycle “by providing homeless and low-income individuals with a chance to rebuild their lives through employment,” and you’ll enter the draw to win.

The contest is being run through Omaze, which is sort of like Kickstarter for do-gooding celebrities. (Earlier this year, J.J. Abrams offered a fan a walk-on role in Star Wars: Episode VII; right now you can enter the draw to win a backstage hang with Bono, which sounds more like a punishment than a prize to me, but I guess it’s all for a good cause?) Anyway, there’s a variety of prizes for different levels of Schmidt-inspired giving, including SWEAT BANDS (yes), “We Built this Schmidty” apparel, and—for a cool $25,000—lunch with the man himself.

May the Schmidt be with you.

J.J. Abrams, the force behind “Star Wars: Episode VII,” is offering one lucky fan the chance to win a walk-on role on the super-secretive set of the movie. All you have to do is give a bit of tzedakah, via the ‘Force For Change’ charity campaign the director is spearheading for UNICEF.

“We want to put you in the movie, in Star Wars,” Abrams explains in the promo video. “You get to come to London, where we’re shooting the movie mostly at Pinewood Studios…You’ll get to meet the cast, go behind the scenes, and see the whole movie-making process. But more than that, we’ll put you in hair, makeup and wardrobe, and you’ll actually get to be in the movie.”

Various items are being auctioned off Kickstarter-style—there’s a ‘Force for Change’ t-shirt for $100, and an advance private screening for you and 20 of your best friends for a cool $50,000. (If only.) Happily, everyone who donates $10 or more enters the draw to win the set visit.

Money raised will benefit UNICEF’s Innovation Labs, which supports the development of all sorts of cool gadgetry to improve the lives of children in developing countries, like solar-powered learning kits, and mobile phone apps to help reunite families in the event of an emergency.

Click, donate, and may the force be with you. (C’mon, I had to.)
