You can help Will Rhymes earn money for military families

You can help Tigers second baseman Will Rhymes raise money for a great charity, and possibly go home with an autographed baseball and new follower on Twitter all at the same time.

Through the charity Twitchange, frequent Tweeter Rhymes is auctioning off a retweet, a follow and a mention on Twitter, as well as a package featuring all three. Winners of each auction receive an autographed baseball as well. All the money raised will benefit Operation Once in a Lifetime, which goes to help military members and their families financially.

Rhymes said of his participation:

"I heard about Twitchange from my agent at BHSC and it seemed like a great idea. Twitter is a lot of fun to interact with the fans, but I love the idea of using it for a good cause, which Operation Once in a Lifetime definitely is. I can think of no more worthy cause than to help soldiers and their families' dreams come true."

As the son of a veteran and a friend of many people who have served their country, I must agree with Rhymes on that!

So how do you participate? Head on over to this auction hosted at eBay and bid as much as you can.

In addition to Rhymes, there are many other celebrities participating as well. So head over to the Twitchange website to see other auctions you may wish to bid on.

But you better be sure to do it quick. The auctions end Saturday.
