Celebrities engage on different levels with eBay. Some donate a signed item, others have their own foundations they seek to benefit. We have a lovely actress now we are working with who is about as involved as you can get.
Evangeline Lilly is busy doing media for the new season of LOST, but has taken a charitable perspective with the interviews, seizing the moment to talk about her 2/1 eBay auction for her lingerie line, with part of the proceeds to benefit Task Brazil, a very special cause which seeks to help the kids get out of the favelas (slums) which were shown in the film City of God. On Tuesday 1/27, she talked about it on Good Morning America and then later on David Letterman, mentioning eBay Giving Works and Auction Cause too.
The auction is a series of listings of brand new high end lingerie, starting at 99 cents with no reserve. Evangeline hand signed a nice 8x10 color photo as well as signed a thank you letter, every winner gets both of these. She also took time out from her busy schedule to record a video about the auction and charity. You can see it on the auction site.
What a great way to encourage bidders, inform the public about an important cause, and market her lingerie. We hope everyone enjoys these great pieces. You can sign up now to be notified when it begins by entering your email address here.
