Samantha auctions personal items to raise funds for her Charitable Organization

Samantha Ruth Prabhu started a Charitable Organization to help Children and Women a year ago. After battling with immunity disorder that left her bedridden for over two months, she decided to help those in need of medical assistance. "Lot of people, who I did not know personally, took care of me when I was ill. It got me thinking about how I could repay back to the society" says Samantha. Along with 3 doctors she started the philanthropic foundation. Her eagerness to help more people made her to auction her personal items to raise funds for the organisation. The team is constantly growing in numbers with like minded people. At a recent meetup to discuss, how to reach out to more people gave rise to the idea of auction her personal items like - Designer clothes that she wears for public functions, accessories and her wardrobe from films. It is expected that the auction will be held in the middle of the month October. Samantha is planning to rope in other Tollywood stars into the charitable organization.
