Over the years Apprentice/Celebrity Apprentice has raised over 15 million for charity. Tonight it's down to media professionals Geraldo Rivera and Leeza Gibbons raising money for Leeza's Care Connection and Life Worc. They will be taking home an additional $250,000 on top of what they raise during the final task. Their final challenge was to produce an commercial for Universal Orlando Resort and present it at a red carpet event in NYC.

Life's Worc is about helping those with developmentally disabled. With the money he has raised they are expanding a family center for autism. For Geraldo, this season has been a cakewalk. He has had absolutely no competition regarding fundraising but his bulldozer attitude has cost him friendly team members. Naturally Geraldo's commercial stars himself (seems to be the theme of the season) and his mission is to connect to the tag, "Discover Your Inner Hero". The execs liked how the team emphasized the hero theme and incorporated their celebrity. They didn't like that the parents and children has separate experiences instead of having fun as a family.

Leeza's Care Connection is about supporting the supporters of those with Alzheimers. With the money she won she was able to open up a location in South Carolina. Leeza has been more supportive than aggressive during this season and it has proven to be effective. Her commercial revolves around a micro-managing father who realizes vacations aren't about control but more about togetherness and memories. The execs loved Leeza's voiceover and thought she was very articulate. They also liked that her team encompassed different aspects of the park and tied into her charity. They would've liked to have seen more celebrity in the commercial, however, and didn't feel the story went far enough. They loved more than they hated and thus Leeza was the project winner!

The fundraising wasn't even close... Team Geraldo raised $146,000 during this event bringing his total for the season to $725,000. Team Leeza raised $324,000 bringing her season total to almost half a million dollars. There can only be one Celebrity Apprentice:
