Celebrity auction raises money for YWCA

Posted:
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -

The YWCA of Nashville held their 29th annual celebrity auction on Sunday.

The auction, which benefited the non-profit organization that helps families leave abusive situations, was held in downtown Nashville on the corner of Forth Avenue and Broadway.

Attendees were given the opportunity to bid on autographed items from Keith Urban, Tim McGraw and Taylor Swift among others.

Country sensation Martina McBride, who previously hosted the auction for the last 15 years, was unable to attend Sunday's event.  

"This year we were a little worried that Martina couldn't be here, but we're blowing it out of the water, so the numbers look incredible. We're so excited and it's much more than we anticipated," Donna Dant of the organization said.
