Sheryl Crow Donates Merc To Help Joplin, MO

Sheryl Crow, the singer, songwriter, actress and record producer has donated her 1959 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL Roadster valued at fifty to eighty thousand dollars to be auctioned for charity. The proceeds from the car's sale will be used to help rebuild Joplin, Missouri.

The city was recently devastated by the deadliest single tornado in more than half a century to affect the area. It took its toll on hospitals, shopping malls, schools and private residences throughout the city.

The proceeds from the auction of the Mercedes will go to the Community Foundation of the Ozarks, which has raised close to $2.5 million for the devastated city, about 30% of which was destroyed by the tornado according to some estimates.

Sheryl Crow intends to put in an appearance on the Jay Leno show, who is himself a car enthusiast. which she hopes will help boost the auction price of the car.
