Arcade Fire have announced that they are donating the proceeds from the sales of a limited number of autographed DVDs and silk-screened posters to charity.

The band have signed 250 copies of the deluxe edition of their recently released 'Miroir Noir' DVD and are offering them up along with hand-silk-screened band posters signed by the artist. All proceeds from the sales of the DVD/poster packages will go to Partners In Health, which delivers high-quality health care to the poor.

The items are available through the band's website at Arcadefire.com.

Meanwhile, the band are gearing up to work on their third studio album after a year-long hiatus, and have recorded a new version of their song 'Wake Up' for Spike Jonze's new film 'Where The Wild Things Are'.
