Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly. Auctions Himself For Charity

• 15th Aug 2010

Sam [Get Cape] Duckworth has partnered with Oxfam to help raise money for those affected by the floods in Pakistan. Sam has put himself up for auction on Ebay, offering to play in the house of the highest bidder.

Bids have reached over £900 already, and there are over 6 days left to bid!

Sam says of the auction:

“A higher than usual monsoon season in Pakistan has caused flooding to ravage this beautiful country. Infrastructure has collapsed, 4 million people are left homeless, malnourished and in desperate need of aid, the biggest natural disaster in many years.

As a result I put a note up on facebook seeing if anyone would be interested in donating money to the DEC/Oxfam appeal in exchange for an 'in your house' acoustic gig. Response was overwhelming. As a result I have decided to put it up for auction via the oxfam eBay store.

Happy bidding, let's hope we can raise a lot of money to help this nation in times of desperate need”
