The Mr. Local History Project has partnered with eBay for Charity to offer unique local items online to our audience where proceeds go towards our mission and operating expenses. Donations are the lifeblood of any charity and the Mr. Local History Project is no different. MLH often receives items from our local community with the intent to offer to the public via eBay for Charity. Have something unique and local? Let us know.
Trying new ways to bring one time opportunities to our followers while raising funds for a great cause.

Donating vs. Bidding
Bidding is simple. We will describe the item as best we can with what we know. Winner will pay via Paypal and proceeds less fees will pass to the Mr. Local History project fund. Very straight forward. Winning bidder will have option to pick up item locally or in some cases, items will be requested to ship where possible. Bid with your heart! A bid serves as a donation, so we hope you’ll ALWAYS consider overbidding. It’s not just a bid, it’s a donation!

About the Mr. Local History Project
The Mr. Local History project’s mission is to preserve and promote local history with a social twist. We are based in the Somerset Hills, an area in northern Somerset County, New Jersey. As an all volunteer registered 501c3 non-profit, the group creates social and educational programs and activities that strive to engage in fun new ways.
Mr. Local History announced the incorporation of Mr. Local History as a 501c3 non-profit organization. By incorporating, the effort is now recognized as a legal entity to conduct business, organize, and develop fundraising efforts to support programs geared specifically for the local communities of the Somerset Hills in the northern section of Somerset County, New Jersey. All donations are tax deductible.
How do we find the auction? I searched for “Mr. Local History Project” on eBay for Charity with no luck.
