Read the following article and answer the question.

I wanted to share with you a picture of a little handbag that I just finished up . I was asked to participate in the " Bag Ladies Luncheon " this year to raise money for The Art Museum . Ladies meet for lunch and bid on donated handbags- new , gently used , vintage and this year for the first time , a collection of artist - decorated bags .

Why is the narrator buying so many bags ?
They are doing it for charity .
