New York, NY – January, 2009 – For that special someone who has everything, the best gifts rise above red roses to reveal a big heart and a bit of creativity. Charitybuzz (www.charitybuzz.com), a trendsetter in cause marketing dedicated to raising funds for nonprofits through incredible online auctions, launches its Valentine’s Day Auction today featuring luxury gifts and celebrity experiences that raise funds for those in need.
From dazzling diamonds to gorgeous getaways, Charitybuzz has put together a collection of wish list items – a chance to meet Hugh Jackman, a romantic Hawaii escape, and the highly anticipated Porsche Cayenne S. Hybrid to name a few – to benefit more than a dozen charities. Bidding for the charitybuzz Valentine’s Day Auction will be open through Feb 10, 2010, with new luxury items being added daily.
“On Valentine’s Day, it’s easy to focus on your special someone and forget the millions who need help around the world. Charitybuzz helps its bidders share incredible experiences with the people they love, while at the same time spreading goodwill to charities and the people they help every day,” said Coppy Holzman, CEO of charitybuzz.
