Beginning October 19, the Feminist Majority Foundation is auctioning some terrific items donated by feminist celebrities and all proceeds go towards the Get Out Her Vote Campaign. You can place your bids through our eBay-based online auction site to help us raise critical funds for the final two weeks of the Get Out Her Vote Campaign. It's fun, it's easy, and it's for a good cause.

Here is where you can help -- and have some fun-- by bidding on items donated by your favorite celebrities who participated in the March for Women's Lives in Washington, D.C. We are auctioning "This is What a Feminist Looks Like" March t-shirts signed and decorated by Gloria Steinem; Susan Sarandon, Janeane Garofalo, Lisa Gay Hamilton, Christine Lahti, Camryn Manheim, Carrie Fisher, and Candice Bergen; set visits to the drama series Judging Amy starring Emmy nominated Amy Brenneman and Emmy winner Tyne Daly, and to the animated series King of the Hill, starring the voice of Kathy Najimy; autographed scripts and photographs; VIP ticket package to a taping of The Tonight Show, starring Jay Leno; a bass guitar autographed by the band members of Maroon 5 and more!

The potential power of women's votes is tremendous - yet the vast majority of young women did not vote in the last election. We must make sure that this does not happen again. Our GET OUT HER VOTE Campaign is working on college campuses in seven key states to increase young women's registration and voting, but we need your support for stipends for student organizers, travel expenses, and supplies such as Feminist Voter Pledge Cards and posters for visibility on campus.
