Lena Dunham auctions clothes for NGO

Actress Lena Dunham says she had to "spontaneously" auction all her clothes to raise funds for an NGO Planned Parenthood.

Planned parenthood is an American NGO for reproductive health as well as maternal and child health services here.

The 29-year-old actress shared a photograph of herself wearing nothing but a black brassiere and a necklace on Instagram afterwards, with the caption: "The @plannedparenthood event in LA tonight was so crazy inspiring. I also spontaneously auctioned the ovary patterned sweater off my body for a nice 4k to benefit PP... Had to walk home in my skivvies and a men's coat #worthit #onbrand #standwithPP"

While Dunham is very active on the photo-sharing application, she said she no longer manages her own Twitter account after being targeted by bullies, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I don't look at Twitter anymore. I tweet, but I do it through someone else. I don't even know my Twitter password, which may make me seem like I'm no longer a sort of genuine community user.

"I really appreciate that anybody follows me at all, and so I didn't want to cut off my relationship to it completely, but it really, truly wasn't a safe space for me," she said.
