| | |  Signed first edition Deathly Hallows auctioned for Children with AIDS
A signed first edition copy of Deathly Hallows is being auctioned to raise funds for the charity Children with AIDS.
The money will help aid their Education Programme, to help prevention, and the Hardship Project, which helps supports families and friends of those who are suffering. The charity provides breaks and day trips as well as a transport service. They work in the UK and internationally in both Africa and Asia, particularly with orphans and vulnerable children.
A picture of the book can be seen here. A letter from J.K. Rowling's personal assistant, confirming the authenticity, can be seen here. 
Bids can be made here. The book is currently going for £1,501.00. The auction ends on March 7th at 4:50pm GMT.
