OUCH, Ebay and support...please read!

Hi guys! This is helpless23 (Toni) on a different computer (cuz I'm sick) and I forgot my password and was too lazy to get up and get it, so I made a new name! Anyway, I have just been added to the fundraising team (and very excited about it too!) to head out some awesome auctions on Ebay. I currently support another organization called Blythedale Children's Hospital as wel and I am very successful (being I am just one person) in raising about 2,000 dollars for them in a 3 month time period. I e-mailed Mel and Elaine and proposed my idea to them about running auctions throughout the year (mostly celebrity signed memorabilia) to help OUCH raise some money and get done what it needs to get done and get the support and help that everyone so desperately needs! In any case, I will hopefully be putting up some auctions at the beginning of next week. If ANYONE has a favorite artist that they would like to see up for auction, PLEASE drop me an e-mail or a PM under my regular screen name helpless23 or by e-mailing me at ouchorg@yahoo.com. Also, for future reference - my Ebay user ID for these auctions is - clusterorg Keep checking back at Ebay - but I will make a post each time I put a batch of auctions up for listing! Right now I currently work privately with a few music artists such as Matchbox Twenty's Rob Thomas, Michelle Branch, Jason Mraz and Incubus. I hope to get more artists to sign up for my causes at the end of the year. I also have signed scripts from the cast of Will & Grace and Bob Barker from the Price Is Right. Most of them are originally hand signed, other's are Pre-Prints (at the discretion of their Public Relations) but ALL of the artists I work with personally are authentic, not pre printed. So, I hope this will pan out like I hope it will. I understand that a lot of you are not able, financially to donate, but please pass the word around to friends and family members. We are also thinking about holding a luncheon in the NYC area for the highest bidder and a guest...but that is in the future. Just a peek ahead of great things to come! Every little bit helps, and with the community on Ebay seeing this information, reading about Cluster Headaches - what they are and what OUCH is all about, I think that this will be a great way to spread the word and educate more people about the disease. I am doing this to help. And what better cause then to help raise money for a disease that my husband has had most of his life, and that other's that I feel very close to here have also. Let's make this a team effort and I hope to see a lot of you at the auctions! Much Love, Toni
