Nicole Richie & Joel Madden Raise $10,000 for Playground

September 23, 2008 by Erin Balser  

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden’s text-a-thon appears to be a smashing success. The couple has raised $10,000 already and are on mark to reach their goal of $35,000. The money will go towards building a new playground in a low-income area of Los Angeles.

“Text CHILD to 90999″ has received 1,825 text messages so far, according to People. Each text has given a $5 donation.

Joel has vowed to get out on the playground and play with the kids once it’s built. That will be a lot of fun to see!
