Post this

In addition to their accomplishments in the movie industry, the featured actresses made significant contributions in business, science, the arts and philanthropy. Hedy Lamarr invented a frequency-hopping system used during WWII that prevented the Axis powers from jamming Allied communications. Audrey Hepburn devoted much of her life to UNICEF, work she was inspired to do after witnessing the atrocities of WWII as a child. Dolores Del Rio was the first internationally recognized Latin American female star, and founded various organizations in Mexico protecting and promoting the arts. These women not only entertained the world, they made it a better place.

Proceeds from this auction benefit Dress for Success, and support their mission to promote the economic independence of disadvantaged women.

The auction will be live on Paddle8 (http://www.paddle8.com) June 22nd - July 6th, 2015.
