Stephen Murray Online Garage Sale for Benefit
By: Cody York - Espn.com

This is kinda cool. Adbirds, as far as I can tell, is sorta like eBay, and Austin, Texas's own 101 KROX FM is teaming up with them to host an online charity garage sale to raise funds for an organization called Active Force Foundation, specifically benefiting the Stephen Murray Family Fund and Stay Strong Apparel.

There are two ways to help:
1: Beginning Monday, May 18th, list any items you have for sale on Adbirds. Upon check-out, it will ask you if you'd like to reference a charity, when doing so, select 101X/Stephen Murray. Now, happy selling! You list it, you sell it, and adbirds.com donates $1 in your name to the foundation, up to $4000!

2: Donate items to be sold in the 101X online garage sale. On Thursday, June 5th, 101X is hosting an on-line garage sale and 100% of the proceeds will go to the foundation benefiting Stephen Murray. What can you donate? Event tickets, sporting goods, dinner certificates, services, t-shirts, movie memorabilia, cars, boats, liquor packages, anything!

And here's the little bio 101X sent along to get the word out about Stephen. I like the way it reads so I'm including it here: "Stephen Murray is a former X-Games champion who was injured at an event in 2007. At the age of 27, Stephen Murray is a quadriplegic, a father to two beautiful sons, an athlete, and an inspiration to many. You may have heard of his story on Bryant Gumbel's HBO Special or through numerous other television appearances. Stephen Murray hopes to be able to walk, ride and compete one day, but his goal to hold his children again is his most important dream. You can learn about him at www.myspace.com/murraystrong." -Brian Tunney
