I heard about this yesterday. I'm not sure what the point is. You have to sell a lot of $77 tickets to raise any meaningful money. I would have priced the tickets to try to raise at least a million.

The ticket price is only the beginning of the fund raising. There will be an opportunity for all attending to donate money in far larger amounts than they probably anticipated. When Rush gets thru presenting the situation and what is needed to help, the checkbooks will open wide. FWIW, I expect that Rush personally has already donated big time to a charity that can be counted on to spend the money wisely, without a rake off before it goes to the intended destination.
