You've gotta hand it to Robert Pattinson for being a charitable guy. It has just been announced that Pattinson ("Edward Cullen" in The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and "Tyler" in Remember Me) is pitching in for a local Hawaiian Montessori school fundraising drive by donating autographed posters and a Twilight book for the Montessori Hale O Keiki’s annual fundraising gala, "The Orchid Ball."
Pattinson's signed gear will go up for auction at "The Orchid Ball" on February 5th, and it appears that proceeds will go to benefit the local Montessori school program.
Nice guy, huh?
You might remember some of Pattinson's other charitable contributions of late. Last spring, Pattinson auctioned off a smooch for AMFAR (while promoting Remember Me at Cannes), and only recently, Pattinson presented for George Clooney's famed "Hope for Haiti" telethon (in London, England) with the following speech:

Underneath a flattened university, Maxine Fallon waited. She was crouched in a fetal position and could barely move. In the darkness and during the hectic sounds of the day, through the pain, the hunger and thirst, she prayed that someone would find her. And on the sixth day her prayers were answered, she was found because of a text message from the rubble sent rescuers to her side. Unlike any other event in history, our world has been connected to this tragedy because of technology. Twitter updates, Facebook pages with pictures of the missing and text messages for help. This technology is working right now to connect us, too. At hopeforhaitinow.org, you can donate and you can instantly interact with people in Haiti and anywhere in the globe. Join with those watching and see what they're saying about something we all care deeply about — helping the Haitian people get back on their feet. Please go to hopeforhaitinow.org. Thank you.

It seems that many of the Twilight cast members have grown a very charitable bone, and even little things like this make a huge difference. The more the merrier, right?
Props to Pattinson for pitching in.
