organization or NGO, whether large or small, wanting to fundraise for a noble cause can apply.
Broadly, we look for the following types of items and experiences:
Money-can't-buy items and experiences
Items or experiences with celebrity or star association
Unique items
Rare and in-demand items
High-value items e.g: autographed memorabilia
Special interest items, experiences or memorabilia
Anything that will capture the public imagination and have appeal

Promoting your High Profile Charity Auction
By eBay India
For your charity auction, we will provide you with a promotional area on our charity page. For this you will need to provide us
with:
A small graphic (50x50 pixels), usually the charity logo
A short description of your charity auction that you would like to accompany the graphic, for example, "Bollywood costume
   Click here to bid now!"
The URL of your ‘About Me’ page for us to link to
By the NGO
The more people know about your High Profile Charity Auction, the better. Creative, eye-catching promotions and spreading the
word, generates interest in your auction and increases the number of bids you will receive. This is sure to help your NGO raise
as much money as possible. Some ideas on how you could draw attention to your auction:
If you have a press contact or an in-house press office, brief them to promote your auction via television, radio or print.
If your NGO has a web site or a mailing list, you could include references/ links to your ‘About Me’ and My World pages or the
  auction using this medium.
Contact Winning Bidders
Once the auction is over all you need to do is contact the winning bidders by email within 7 days to arrange for payment and
shipping.
