An upcoming auction for the second annual A Kiss For Country philanthropic campaign will see celebrity lip prints sold off to raise money for domestic-violence centers across America.

Singer-songwriter Jewel launched the campaign in August on behalf of the Mary Kay Ash Charitable Foundation; the Mary Kay company will itself contribute $3 million to domestic shelters in 2009.

Jewel is to finally unveil the lip prints during a press conference on Nov. 11, and the online auction will run from that date until Dec. 12.

Among the other artists helping to kiss domestic violence goodbye are Reba McEntire, Kellie Pickler, Rodney Atkins, Sara Evans, Miranda Lambert, Wynonna and Naomi Judd, Jennifer Hanson and Emerson Drive.

As reported by Look To The Stars back in August, singer Jewel is spearheading this year’s Mary Kay Ash Charitable Foundation Kiss For Country campaign, and the auction start date is getting closer.

The singer will unveil a range of lip prints made by country music’s biggest stars at a press conference on November 11 for the auction, which will run online until December 12. Proceeds from the auction will aid domestic-violence centers across America.

Some of the stars taking part include Reba McEntire, Kellie Pickler, Rodney Atkins, Sara Evans, Miranda Lambert, Wynonna and Naomi Judd, Jennifer Hanson, Emerson Drive, Martina McBride, Clint Black, and many others.

“I’m thrilled to be a part of this campaign because domestic violence gets passed through generations, and the only way to stop it is to bring attention to the cause,” said Jewel.

Look To The Stars will have more info on the auction when it is announced.

Kissing Violence Good-bye

Country music artists puckered up to create a collection of kissed cards that are being auctioned off to fans on line until the end of this year. The framed lip prints were displayed earlier this month at the 41st Annual Country Music Association Awards.

Stars like Reba McEntire, Sara Evans, Jennifer Hanson, Miranda Lambert, Jo Dee Messina, Jennifer Nettles, Tanya Tucker and Wynonna applied their favourite Mary Kay lip product and left their prints on cards that were then analyzed by a “professional kissologist.”

Proceeds are to benefit the Mary Kay Ash Charitable Foundation programs committed to ending domestic violence. The Foundation also funds research on finding cures for cancers affecting women. Says “A Kiss for Country” charity campaign spokesperson and country superstar Martina McBride, “Through the kisses of my fellow Country Music artists, we are hoping to help put an end to domestic violence.”

Mary Kay has also pledged, through the Foundation, a $20,000 grant to a women’s shelter in the name of each artist who donated a kiss, and up to $3 million to women’s shelters around the United States in 2008.
“With one in three women in this country affected by domestic violence, it is important for survivors to know there is help in their neighborhood,” said Mary Kay senior vice president Rhonda Shasteen.
