NEW YORK: Angie Harmon is hosting a celebrity shoe auction in New York City and sending her baby daughter through an obstacle course to raise money for charity.

Nine-month-old Emery Hope is among the babies crawling through a terrain of mock mountains and ski slopes on Tuesday while their moms bid on shoes signed by celebrities including Melissa Joan Hart, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Tori Spelling.

The shoes are from the Big Movers collection, designed for parents on the go.

The event benefits the Washington, D.C., nonprofit KaBOOM! which builds playgrounds. It takes place in a Manhattan park.

Harmon's television credits include "Law & Order" and "Women's Murder Club." She kicks off the shoe auction with her husband, former New York Giants and St. Louis Rams football player Jason Sehorn (SEE'-horn).
