Stars Step Out with Pediped Footwear in Raising Funds for Make-A-Wish

Your baby can wear shoes signed by their favorite celebrities. More than 50 celebrities are participating in Stars for a Wish, an online auction of autographed pediped® baby shoes to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The auction will run Oct. 25-Nov. 1 on Charity Buzz. Bidding will start at $250 for the signed shoes. Recipients will receive the shoes attractively displayed in a cherry-finished shadow box or clear acrylic box complete with an engraved plaque.

Celebrities who signed pediped® baby shoes for the auction include Jessica Alba, Halle Berry, Heidi Klum, Charlie Sheen, Jon Stewart, Kenny Chesney, Whoopi Goldberg, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Courtney Cox Arquette, Marcia Cross, Shaquille O’Neal and many more.

The Stars for a Wish fundraiser has a minimum goal of $25,000, which will help grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions. One-hundred percent of the funds raised through the auction will benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

“We were overwhelmed by the willingness of so many celebrities, many of them already familiar with our brand, to generously help us support this cause,” said Angela Edgeworth, President and Co-Founder of pediped® footwear. “Now it’s all up to the public to bid high for these shoes so they not only receive a beautifully presented keepsake from their favorite celebrity, but more importantly, so they will be helping children facing life-threatening medical conditions.” To learn more about the Stars for a Wish fundraiser and to view a complete list of participating celebrities, visit www.pediped.com/stars.
