Hi Adriana, I have been raising money for special events by holding a silent auction. Ask staff or family and friends to donate items in good condition that they no longer need. Place about four or five items on a table .Have a sheet of paper for each item with description of item on top.Underneath have two columns.One headed "Name" where bidder writes their name. 2nd column head "Your Bid". Bidder writes in amount they would be willing to pay for that item. Next bidder does same on next line. Each bidder can bid more than once if someone has outbid them and they really want it. .THEY THEN GO DOWN UNDER LAST BIDDER ON NEW LINE AND MAKE A HIGHER BID AND SO ON.LEAVE IT UP FOR ABOUT A WEEK.THEN COLLECT UP AND HIGHEST BIDDER PAYS FOR THAT ITEM AND KEEPS IT(WHEN THEY HAVE PAID for it)This has been very successful .
I am so grateful for this website and the types of activities it offers. I use it everyday. The clients I serve are receptive to the programs offered. I never ventured into armchair travel until I found this website, and now it is one of the most popular clinics I put on. I also appreciate the Power Point presentations. I hosted the Cowboys and Cowgirls of the Wild West, what a treat! Thank you so much!!!
