Former First Lady Kicks-Off Munchkin(R) Charity Auction - Results Are Just 'Ducky!' What: The bidding frenzy for a Munchkin pink duck decorated and autographed by former First Lady Barbara Bush is setting a high bar for a month-long breast cancer support fundraiser. After just five days on the eBay bidding block, Barbara Bush's elegantly-decorated duck is already commanding a whopping $1,200, soaring over the starting bid of $0.99. Who: Munchkin -- maker of award-winning infant and toddler products -- kicked off its Project Pink breast cancer support program on October 1 with support from Former First Lady Barbara Bush, eBay founder Meg Whitman and mega star Stacy Keibler of Dancing with the Stars. Over the next three weeks, more star-powered ducks will join the line up and strive to out-do Mrs. Bush's stellar performance. 100% of proceeds will benefit the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. Turn a tail feather for the following participating celebrities debuting their ducky submissions later this month: Reese Witherspoon, Patti LaBelle, Martin Sheen and Allison Janney.
