2002 MLS Supporters Auction (2002 Team Autographed Kappa Ball & Nike Jersey For Bid)

2002 MLS Supporters Auction

The 2002 MLS Supporters Charity Auction, held in conjunction with 2002 MLS Cup and sponsored by the Midnight Riders, will "go live" this evening starting at 5:00PM EST when a preliminary selection of items will be made available on-line through Ebay.

Links to these auctions as well as others scheduled to start in the coming days can be accessed through the Midnight Riders website at: http://www.midnightriders.com/Auction/Auction.htm

All proceeds from this auction will be donated to the Massachusetts Chapter of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to aid in their mission "to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and to improve the quality of life of patients and their families." Earlier this year New England Revolution G.M. Todd Smith was diagnosed with acute myopic leukemia, and after a brief period of remission he is once again battling the disease, undergoing further chemotherapy treatment and needing a bone marrow transplant.

Big often, bid high and help others like Todd by contributing to those efforts focused on eradicating this disease. The last auction conducted in conjunction with a Cup final at Foxboro raised $1,500 back in 1999. We'd very much like to beat that figure... by a lot.

The following is a list of those items up for bid:
