If you bid on items signed by celebrities including Ozzy Osbourne, Katy Perry and Beyonce until Nov. 14, all that you pay will help The Obakki Foundation wells drilled in southern Sudan. The local foundation, which uses fashion and creative arts as a fundraising vehicle to bring water and education to people in Africa, hopes to alleviate suffering with its Rainmaker Auction on eBay. The people of southern Sudan have faced 40 years of civil war. Two million people have been killed. Four million people have been displaced. Six million people live without clean water. The Obakki Foundation is drilling wells to change that. The foundation reports that it regularly visits its project sites, partners with local indigenous groups and implements safeguards to ensure sustainability. The auction is happening at ebay.com/ObakkiFoundation.
