Avril Lavigne is celebrating her birthday by launching a massive celebrity charity auction to benefit The Avril Lavigne Foundation.

“Thank you to everyone who has donated, tweeted, or posted so far for the Rockstar Room!” blogged the singer. "The video I posted on Tuesday already has over 50,000 views – I am SO proud to know that all of my fans are coming out to show their support for the Avril Lavigne Foundation. Every little bit helps – so keep it up!

“Our goal is to provide tons of creative ways for you to give back, so over the past few months the Avril Lavigne Foundation has been reaching out to all kinds of musicians to donate items to a Rockstar Auction that will launch today at 4PM PST. You can sign up for an email notification when it launches here. All net proceeds from the auction will support the Foundation.

“I would also like to say a HUGE thank you to all of the awesome musicians and artists who have generously donated items to the auction, including: Deryck Whibley, Four Year Strong, Jesse McCartney, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Matt Nathanson, Nickelback, OK Go, Panic at the Disco, DJ Pauly D, Ryan Cabrera, Shaun White, Simple Plan, Skylar Grey, Sum41, Taylor Momsen, Train and Travis Barker.
