Default Hannah Teter's Auction

Has anyone heard about the auction that Hannah Teter is having? Shes raising money for water sanitation in a village in Kenya that Hannah has been supporting. Up for bid is an awesome pair of bindings. Its a sweet piece of memorabilia and its a wicked good cause. I found more out about the charity here World Vision - Hannah Teter - Helping Children in Kirindon, Kenya I can't believe she donating $150,000 of her own winnings as well. I don't know about you guys but I think its a pretty cool thing to do. The auction for the bindings can be found here GO211 Auction . What do you guys think of Hannah?

sounds like a good cause. and the fact that she is willing to give away so much of her own money shows that it is at least a little bit more than just a publicity stunt.

Kudos to Hannah. The greatest gift we can give to others is compassion and helping out those less fortunate than us...A higher cause to be sure.. good on her.. and an example to others.

No way, someone actually donating money that is going to a cause that will actually HELP people. Water treatment/sanitation is one of the largest problems facing developing nations. Good for her.
