Sci Fi Charity Auction

A group of sci-fi stars and other members of the Vancouver movie and TV community have banded together to hold a charity auction on eBay to defray the mounting medical bills of Vancouver actress Babz Chula, who is fighting breast cancer.

The auction, which is live today on eBay, will offer for bid items like dinners with actors such as X-Files principals David Duchovny, Nicholas Lea, Chris Carter and Callum Keith Rennie, as well as actor/director/writer Peter DeLuise (Stargate SG-1). Also up for bid are movie memorabilia including an autographed slate from the upcoming X-Files movie and original shooting scripts for the Burt Lancaster film Atlantic City (1980) and the Robert Altman's Quintet (1977).

Babz's friends, who have formed Babz Chula Lifeline for Artists Society, are looking to raise $250,000 for her treatment, which, in addition to traditional chemotherapy, will include naturopathic treatment not covered by her health insurance.
