Proceeds from the sale of the 210th LaFerrari Aperta will be donated to Save the Children, an international organization that works to improve the lives of disadvantaged children around the world.

If you recall, the previous record for a LaFerrari was $7 million dollars, which went to auction to raise funds for earthquake victims in Central Italy last year.
