What if you could win a chance to experience…one of the biggest matches of this Premier League - the Chelsea VS Manchester United match, LIVE, at Stamford Bridge in London, with Abhishek Bachchan, on October 23rd? And do good at the same time? Just for Rs. 300?
Buy My Time is a first of its kind Internet Company, based out of Bengaluru and Mumbai that uses online raffles to bring once-in-a-lifetime experiences to celebrity fans – at the same time, raising funds for charities. It enables everyone to have life-changing experiences with personalities/celebrities that they admire. These experiences are not only entertaining, adventurous and inspirational but also help give back to society at the same time.
This experience with Abhishek Bachchan is the first of many. Majority of the proceeds raised through ticket sales of this experience will be donated to the Samarthanam Trust for the Disabled. The trust supports the visually impaired, disabled and underprivileged by providing them with education, vocational training and placement-based rehabilitation to help them achieve personal independence.

The experiences will straddle multiple categories – from Movies – Indian and International, Sports, Business, Fashion, TV, Food, Music, Arts, Lifestyle and more.
Sampath Kumar, MD, Buy My Time says – “The inspiration for the concept came to me from the yearly lunch Warren Buffett auctions for the benefit of Glide Foundation. It is amazing how it has empowered the Glide Foundation over the years – raising more than $3 million dollars this year alone.
The value of giving is at the very core of Buy My Time’s business model. The brand’s vision is to create once-in-a –lifetime experiences that are also empowering in the social context. It rests on 3 key pillars – Celebrities, Experiences and Charities.
The world around us is changing as we speak – not only are aspirational experiences no longer an urban phenomenon, there is also a worldwide movement to democratize ‘giving’ across cultures and countries. And we all are aware of the influence that celebrities and personalities wield on our psyche. Our attempt is to bring this influence to precipitate social change in the country.”
Buy My Time is not just partnering with like-minded celebrities like Abhishek but also has a clear perspective on the kind of charity partners it is associating with –NGO’s, charitable and philanthropic organisations that have a strong vision, implementation plan and are result oriented with proven past records.KPMG(security advisory partners vetting charities and winners) and Ernst& Young (Compliance Partners)are helping them bring this vision to life.
Abhishek Bachchan says - As you guys know, I am an ardent supporter of Chelsea. And this match is especially exciting as we are facing off against Man Utd with Jose Morinho on their side. And when you add an interesting concept like Buy My Time and powering philanthropy to the mix, it only gets better. I am really looking forward to sharing this amazing experience with the winners.
