by user 68.49.165.21

Basketball sovereign LeBron James teams up with the National Alliance to End Abuse and the Lil’ Kim Cares Foundation for a celebrity auction to raise awareness and change in our communities. King James has donated a rare authentic autographed basketball to help this cause.  You can bid on www.nationalalliances.com also a Monday Night Football game with box seats is far game…

James Family Foundation joins The National Alliance to End Abuse in partnership with Lil’ Kim Cares Foundation, Ludacris Foundation and FOX as they raise funds to benefit national programs designed to offer support for our nation’s most underserved.  Specifically, the millions challenged with transitional living situations, homelessness, HIV/AIDS and the many growing issues resulting from abuse.

The National Alliance to End Abuse, known as, "The Alliance", in partnership with the Lil' Kim Cares Foundation will premiere the nation's first celebrity online charitable auction, Thursday April 12th - Sunday April 15 th to benefit and fund programs and initiatives that benefit youth and families.  The celebrity auction site can be entered through www.nationalalliances.com

Also participating and contributing to the auction fun are Mo’Nique, Ludacris, Mary J. Blige, T.I., Caron Butler, Gilbert Arenas and Kimora Lee Simmons just to name a few.

Both organizations are thrilled about having the opportunity to help so many people at one time.  "Kim has always welcomed any opportunity to give back and starting her own foundation is a way to ensure that she always has that opportunity," offered Gleshia Givens, director Lil' Kim Cares Foundation.

When asked about the non-profits success and ability to reach so many, Jean Chouteau offered this, "We've sort of become the place where celebrities come to have their passion meet their purpose.  As a non-profit we are happy to facilitate that collaboration. Like minded partnerships are critical to solidify when it means reaching those in need, and it helps to have FOX as a partner.  Our programs are always unique, inspired and result oriented...we don't see limitations."  Jean Chouteau serves as Senior Vice President of Strategic Planning for The National Alliance to End Abuse. (Terrell Owens launched ITZNOTOK - (it’s not okay) Dallas last September for this group)

Lil' Kim and Jean Chouteau will appear on Good Day New York, April 12th. 

 Additionally, both groups have national initiatives planned for 2007.
