Auction for a good cause from Marc Spagnuolo

I'm sorry I didn't see the "good cause" mentioned in the link, who benefits from the proceeds?
 
Hi waho,

Yes, could you provide the name of the  group , organization, person, etc. that the charity auction benefits?  I also was unable to find it on the linked site.

Thanks

Seth
 
In another post he mentions that it's for Livestrong through Woodworkers Fighting Cancer.
 
Thank you Richard for the continuity.

"After moving my shop several times, it has become clear to me that I have more tools than I can use. Some tools were purchased with the best intentions or on a whim and I just never incorporated them into my workflow. Other tools were given to me for review, provided in exchange for advertising, or simply sent to me in hopes that I might mention them on the show. Whatever their origin, I’d rather see them being used than sitting in my shop collecting dust. Instead of selling these items outright and pocketing the cash, I’m going to auction them off here at TheWoodWhisperer.com and give the proceeds to charity (specifically, Livestrong through Woodworkers Fighting Cancer). I mentioned in a previous post that I won’t have time this year to do a Woodworkers Fighting Cancer charity build, so perhaps this will ease my guilty conscience."

Below you’ll find a list of the items I plan on posting for auction. I may add more as I rummage through the shop. When posted, I’ll include an actual picture of the item and a complete description as well as the approximate retail value. Please refrain from requesting item specifics as those will be provided with each auction and I will be happy to answer any and all questions at that time.

Sorry for the lack of clarity folks. I put all the information in the first announcement and didn't realize that it would be smart to repeat the information in each auction post. So that is remedied now. As stated above, all proceeds go directly to Livestrong. If you have any questions at all, just let me know. Thanks for spreading the word on this.
