Bushra has become quite the philanthropist these days. The Egyptian actress is using her fame as a platoform to help others, and she's asking her fellow celebs to join the cause. She has begun a campaign to auction personal belongings of stars with the proceeds going to different charities.

The Middle East news portal Elaph reported that Bushra announced on a phone interview on the program "Mumkin" (Possible) that is hosted by journalist Khairi Ramadan that she intends on donating her wedding dress, which she purchased in Paris. This glittery gown is to be the first item she donates for charity. She has chosen the Actors Syndicate and hospitals as her charities of choice to receive the proceeds from her sale.

Bushra suggested establishing an organization that specializes in developing auctions of this sort. She added that her good friends actresses Nelly Karim and Hala Sidqi have joined the charitable fun and were among the first eager to participate in the cause.

Bushra is also keeping active in the biz as she prepares to film her scenes next to Amr Diab in the new television drama "Al Shuhra" (Fame), which is scheduled to air during the Ramadan season of 2015.
