My first ebay auction, referenced here, First Ebay Auction Up, for my Livestrong Ride has closed and raised $44.00 in support of my ride and the Lance Armstrong Foundation. This auction raised far more than i was expecting and am really happy that it did so well. I have one more set of Ron Francis items from his jersey retirement night that i can auction. I’m looking forward to see how this second auction fares in comparison to the first. I’ll be contacting bidders that did not win my prior auction for this one.

This is an example of how to use auctions to raise money for your charitable interests that i was discussing in my previous blog entry regarding contacting your local sports teams for items to auction. I’m hoping each additional auction is just as successful.
