LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
Online auction and shopping giant eBay is partnering with celebrities for a good cause during the month of October.
The successful site is urging shoppers to buy “pink” throughout October, to support breast cancer prevention and treatment – including auctioning items donated by stars to raise funds to battle the disease.
Celebrity donations for auction include a dress worn by Fergie to the 2007 Grammy Awards, as well as a dress worn by “Twilight” beauty Ashley Greene, and the chance to be part of Academy Award-winning actress Reese Witherspoon’s red carpet entourage.
Bids start anywhere from $100 to $1,000, and proceeds from the auctions will go directly to one of the more than 100 participating non-profit organizations including the American Cancer Society, Avon Foundation for Women, Bright Pink, City of Hope and Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
