PokerStars is gearing up to send some of its players to Life Ball 2008. The largest annual charity event and fundraiser for AIDS research has been running since 1993. Life Ball has since become a gigantic and surreal celebration of life attended by celebrities and wealthy philanthropists from around the world. Now you have a chance to donate to the cause. In return, PokerStars will give you a chance to compete for a Life Ball 2008 prize package and real cash.

PokerStars has worked very hard in the past several years to make a difference in the world off the felt. From raising money for tsunami and Hurricane Katrina victims to donating big money to the Darfur effort, PokerStars and its players have proven themselves able to look above the game and toward something greater.
