West Coast rapper The Game has something on display besides his tattoos and lyrical prowess.

The rapper (born Jayceon Taylor) has given TMZ.com an autographed pair of sneakers and a signed T-Shirt to auction off for charity. [Watch video here] (http://media.kompolt.com/tmz/tmz_shoes/videos.html) The "one of a kind" Emerica kicks, which have alligator skin and gold detailing, were given to Game by the Bishop Don Juan and are available for bidding at the auction website eBay. The auction, which ends on Dec. 3, is currently going for $1,125.

Proceeds will benefit A Place Called Home, an L.A.-based enrichment center for at-risk youth. The non-profit center provides a "positive family environment" and educational enrichment to help youth rise above gangs, drugs and poverty.

The Game, who recently turned 28, can likely afford to donate to charity considering he was recently awarded $40,000 that was seized by the government from his Glendale home last May. Police arrested Game and searched his home following a fight on a basketball court, during which the rapper made criminal threats and brandished a firearm in a school zone.

Current Bid - $1,125 US Dollars
