ReplyDeleteThanks! If you can help us get the word out with a RT or a Share, we would really appreciate it!
ReplyDeleteI have a bunch of stuff that I would love to donate to a charity auction like this. Is it possible to donate items to be auctioned, or are you just accepting offers? I would love to help if I can!
ReplyDeleteHi Lyla.. thanks for stopping by. This event has ended, but I would like to do another auction for charity in the fall. If you would like to get involved in that auction, that would be wonderful. We accept new items, we would prefer they are Made in America, as we promote American businesses and fair trade practices. We have been having our sponsors give us a description of the items, value, and will write a piece about the sponsor to be included in the event and it has worked out best for our sponsors to ship the items directly to the winning auction bidders. If this is something you may want to participate in please send me your email address and any links you would like me to check out as well. You can use the Contact Form in the Right side-bar.. "Tell me about..." Thanks again!
