Miley Cyrus is continuing to help relief efforts going on in Haiti after the devastating earthquake that took place last month. The teen star recently participated in the remake of "We Are The World" with many of her fellow celebrities, as well as Simon Cowell's cover of "Everybody Hurts." Now Cyrus is organizing an online benefit for Haiti that involves an eBay celebrity auction. Cyrus has donated her Herve Leger dress to the auction that she wore to the 2010 Grammy Awards just last month.

Cyrus has enlisted the help of many other celebrities to contribute to her celebrity auction for Haiti that can be found at eBay,com/Miley. On the page, items such as Demi Lovato's tour wardrobe and Nicole Richie's House of Harlow jewelry can be found. Cyrus contacted various celebrities hoping they would donate a few items to her cause and many responded with open arms. Other items up for grabs on the celebrity eBay auction include tickets to Hugh Jackman's next movie premiere, Britney Spears' silver dress from the 2008 MTV VMAs, Whoopi Goldberg's tennis shoes, and clothes from Joel Madden.

"I texted Nicole and right away she sent over some amazing jewelry and Joel [Madden] sent some of his clothes," Cyrus told the magazine. "Everyone has been so generous. My mom and I started calling and texting all of our friends to see if they'd like to be a part of the auction. Demi [Lovato] was one of the first to respond. Hugh Jackman was also excited to donate something."

Starting today, February 8, fans of Cyrus can bid on both her Herve Leger Grammys dress as well as tickets to the premiere of her upcoming movie "The Last Song." All proceeds from Cyrus' online celebrity auction will go towards the Red Cross relief efforts that continue in Haiti.
