Auction Benefits 1736 Family Crisis Center in Los Angeles

Christina Aguilera and StubHub.com have once again teamed up on a series of charity ticket auctions for the singer's upcoming Summer Tour. Effective immediately, Aguilera's fans in cities across the country can bid on packages that include two front-row concert tickets, and the incredible opportunity to meet Aguilera in person. The tour begins May 13th at White River Amphitheatre in Auburn, WA. The auction can be accessed through www.StubHub.com or www.christinaaguilera.com. Proceeds from the ticket auctions will benefit the 1736 Family Crisis Center in Los Angeles.

"I want people to understand how important it is to provide a safe place for battered women to seek help," said Aguilera. "Our StubHub.com online auctions are going to raise a lot of money and awareness for the 1736 Family Crisis Center."

StubHub.com hosted a series of successful charity auctions for Christina's "Justified and Stripped" Tour in 2003, which benefited the Women's Center and Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh. By working directly with artists and their management, StubHub.com is able to provide fans unprecedented access to great tickets and special experiences.

"We're pleased that Christina Aguilera has selected StubHub.com again to help raise money for a cause that's dear to her," said Eric Baker, President of StubHub. "While our auctions benefit worthwhile charities directly, StubHub.com users enjoy unprecedented access to front-row tickets and exclusive experiences. It's a win-win-win situation."
