Cyclist and cancer survivor Will Swetnam is holding an eBay auction to raise funds for the Lance Armstrong Foundation via the Livestrong Challenge. There are three items for auction: a Lance Armstrong signed limited edition lithograph (134/500); a Lance Armstrong signed silk screen print of Lance riding; and a 1999 Mapei/Quick Step jersey signed by the team.
The items will be sold to the highest bidder via eBay, with all payments made directly into Swetnam's Livestrong Challenge account, although he will receive no money in this process. Shipping will be paid for by the winning bidder, and will be handled outside of the "winning" bid payment.

Another fundraiser is being organised by Fred Drewe, a 30 year testicular cancer survivor, a life long cyclist, and a member of the LiveStrong Challenge in Orange County, Philadelphia, and Austin. Drewe is holding a raffle, whereby entries are made through a $20 donation (tax deductible for US residents) directly to the LAF. There are only 1000 tickets available.
The prize list includes 3 T-shirt quilts, one based around the Ride for the Roses event, the Tour of Hope, and the third will be designed by the winner. Also there is a Graham Watson Giro d'Itialia poster and several Tour de France and Ride for the Roses jerseys.
