An annual sponsor, Queerty is proud to point you to Bid 2 Beat AIDS, the eBay auction benefiting LIFEbeat: The Music Industry Fights AIDS. The 10-day auction features over 700 celebrity-autographed items and “celebrity experiences.” Given the economic climate right now, it’s understandable that the amount of cash you have for charity donations is more limited than ever. But think about it this way: You can turn the Bid 2 Beat AIDS auction into a holiday shopping experience, snapping up the perfect gifts for friends and family while also raising money for Lifebeat.
To get you started, there’s the Mariah Carey Signed Vinyl LP, Amy Winehouse Signed “Frank” CD, Broadway (Title of Show) Cast Signed CD, and The Gossip Signed Rare Promo CD, many of which are still available for the price of a regular CD.
For the whole catalog, visit the Bid 2 Beat AIDS page on eBay.

Or you can donate directly to amfAR and cut out the not-for-profit but huge salaried “We are the World” charities as we try to actually find a cure for AIDS (and not be used as a product line or celebrity self-promotion) Don’t waste your AIDS Cure/Vaccine donations.
