OpenPress Press Release
 Starting on Thursday, April 20, an original piece of jewelry created by celebrity jewelry designer Ryan Ryan, for Grey’s Anatomy’s Katherine Heigl will be up for auction. All proceeds from this auction will go directly to Katherine’s charity of choice The Coalition on Donation that works to inspire all Americans to Donate Life through organ, eye and tissue donation. This beautiful 14K rose gold pendant with diamond accents was worn by Katherine Heigl on the red carpet before the "Grey's Anatomy" DVD Launch Event.
In addition, this pendant is a featured item in the May issue of Shop Etc. Magazine where Katherine Heigl appears on the cover and several additional beautiful pieces of Ryan Ryan’s jewelry appear as well. Mr. Ryan donated this item after learning of the support Katherine and her mother have given to the Coalition on Donation and its mission over the past seven years. In addition to the pendant, the winner will receive an autographed photo of Katherine wearing the necklace being auctioned. You may bid on this stunning item by going to: www.kheigl.com/auction/.
April is National Donate Life Month, a month dedicated to saving more lives by increasing organ, eye and tissue donation. In addition to their on-going efforts to promote organ donation, a number of celebrities including: Katherine Heigl, Majandra Delfino, Brendan Fehr, Don Mancini, recording artists, Josh Kelley and Alex Band as well as the folks at ABC's hit show Desperate Housewives, celebrity swag bag guru, Lash Fary of Distinctive Assets, and Katherine Heigl's jeweler "Ryan Ryan of Ryan Ryan and Company" have donated items to auction to raise funds to support donation education.
Most recently, a black leather jacket worn by Alex Band of The Calling in the video "Where Ever You Will Go" raised over $6,000 for donation awareness. In addition, Alex donated the actual gold album plaque he received when his album, “Camino Palmero" went gold. Hollywood Records recording artist, Josh Kelley, donated an original piece of art work as well as tickets to a show to actually sit on stage at one of his concerts and a brand new Les Paul guitar.
