A couple weeks ago we told you about a charity called Project Bangladesh. The charity’s mission is to build a school, a library, and a computer lab for needy children in Bangladesh.  They had placed rare Harry Potter books - signed by JK Rowling and Mary GrandPre - on eBay.

Three of the four books up for auction were purchased, and the total amount raised for Project Bangladesh was $7,361!

The Potter fans that bought the books and supported the cause: Shelly R., Jessica O., and Angie T.
