Are you looking for a dinner date? Betty White is available.

On Dec. 3, the 90-year-old actress will auction herself off on eBay to raise money for the SPCA of Los Angeles, which is marking its 135th anniversary. Bidding starts at $1,000. White, a longtime animal rights activist, is dubbed by the organization as “spcaLA’s Friend for life.”

Obviously there are a huge number of Betty White fans out there, and hopefully, people will be willing to bid significantly to be able to bring themselves and three of their guests to dinner with her,” SPCA Los Angeles President Madeline Bernstein told CBS News. Bernstein herself will also be present at the dinner.

The dinner will take place in the Los Angeles area at one of White’s favorite fine-dining restaurants. The exact location hasn’t been revealed, but given the parties involved, don’t bank on a steakhouse or burger joint.

According to the SPCA of Los Angeles website, the winner’s dinner date “will be scheduled on a day mutually agreed upon by all parties.”

Interest in the offer is already starting to spread online.

The bidding closes Dec. 10.
