Live Auction: Where lively bidding occurs!
If you have or know of someone with the ability to donate an experience (ex. vacation home abroad, balloon ride in Tahoe, ski weekend in Colorado, rafting on the river, etc.) this is a perfect item for our Live Auction. Families are welcome to join together to donate a package experience for our Live Auction, so grab your friends and get creative!
Silent Auction: You don’t need to be present to win!
Bidding for the silent auction takes place through our auction website. The silent auction is comprised of a variety of items donated. Donations range from barbecues to facial packages, to household items that our graduates can use as they leave for their new adventure. Think… “what would I like to have, but haven’t spent the time to purchase yet?”
