Proceeds from the eBay sale go to McConaughey's charity, just keep livin, which promotes healthy lifestyles with kids.

"I encourage you to bid or put an item on there to support my foundation," McConaughey says. "In the meantime, and all the time, thank you and just keep livin.'"

McConaughey, 38, and girlfriend Camila Alves, 24, welcomed son Levi, on July 7.

"We are stoked and wowed by this miracle of creation and this gift from God, and so excited for the adventure that will come in raising this child, being a mother and a father, and sheparding him or her through this life," McConaughey blogged when announcing the pregnancy in January.

The actor told Entertainment Tonight he's been receiving parenting advice: "One thing I've heard that's consistent is, 'whatever plans you make, throw them out the window!'"
