Did you know that your click could be worth a dollar for charity? You can raise a dollar for Ben Stiller’s StillerStrong Foundation if you view a photoof Hollywood powerhouse Ben Stiller, Yahoo! chief marketing officer Elisa Steele and advertising legend Jeff Goodby taken at today’s Cannes Lions advertising festival.

Ben joined Elisa and Jeff on stage today in a beyond-packed session that maxed out the festival’s viewing spaces. The three participated in a wide-ranging discussion about creativity and storytelling, which covered how technology is changing the creative process on Madison Avenue and in Hollywood. (For more about Ben, Elisa, and Jeff’s session, check back later.)
At the end of the session, Ben posed for a group photo with Elisa and Jeff and a crowd wearing StillerStrong headbands, and uploaded it to Flickr. He asked everyone to view it and share it with their friends. For every click, Yahoo! will donate a dollar, up to $50,000, to Ben’s StillerStrong charity. StillerStrong is raising money for the Haitian School Initiative, an effort to help provide temporary schools for Haitians displaced by the earthquake in January 2010.
$50,000 will pay for one temporary school. Your view pays for part of that school. So click on it, and pass it on!
