Online Auction House DubLi Feeds Hungry Children by Selling a $10,000 Debit Card
May 20th, 2009Phoenix, Arizona. – The online auction house DubLi features a generous charity promotion supporting children. There will be two auctions, each selling a $10,000 DubLi Debit Card. The revenue accumulated during the first auction will be donated to the child aid organization “Blessings in a Backpack”.
“Blessings in a Backpack feeds children in grades K-5 in Title 1 public schools; who qualify for the Federal Free and Reduced Meal Program and who may not have any or enough food on the weekend”. It supports over 10,000 needy children in Kentucky, Indiana, Florida, Michigan, Missouri, California, and New York to ensure that these young students are able to concentrate on their lessons rather than on their rumbling tummies.
Celebrities such as actress and song-writer Hilary Duff and rock legend Sammy Hagar are currently partnering the charity program.
But this is not the first time for the reverse online auction house to support charity organizations by donating an auction’s total revenue. In December 2008, DubLi already featured a charity promotion which created a total donation of $5,000 to Sparks Charities and was partnered by Jordin Sparks, winner of the American Idol competition.
The current charity auction inuring to the benefit of “Blessings in a Backpack” is online from April 27 to May 31. It is featured in the reverse-style “unique bid” auction portal, which is an auction type where the lowest single bid is awarded the item.
With this charity promotion, the bidders do not only contribute to the welfare of children in need, but do also get the chance to improve their financial situations: the two lucky awardees can spend the $10,000 as they desire. “We are happy to be able to support this charity organization, thus enabling both the needy and the bidders to benefit from DubLi’s success”, says DubLi CTO Dennis Hoffmann.
