I have this great idea, and quite original I think for my new charity I have started.
I would love to get some celebrity help for the auction etc but do I need anything specific? I mean do I need to send a letter about my chairty and all the info or just a letter explaining what I am doing?
Do I need to sent it to a certain address or just regular fan mail.... do you need a agent to do this?

Thanks

Hi. From charity auctions I have won in the past, that tend to come with the original request letter, I have noticed they normally just put a couple of lines about the charity, specify that the item received (from the celeb) will 100% go towards the charity, then they include a link to the website they have set up for the charity (so the agent or celeb can investigate more if they wish). I would tend to request through the agent or manager and not the celebrity if possible, though I don't think it would make that much difference (it just seems politer). I would also suggest when you sell, if any have sent back the original request letter or have sent a note, auction those off with the signed piece. You'll get more money for the charity.

Oh, and make sure it IS a registered charity before you start, or you're messing things up for yourself before you even begin.

Good luck!

I would include a letter detailing the charity you're raising funds for in all ways possible.
