LWVNCC Virtual Auction Fundraiser

In order to be more proactive in accomplishing our objectives, the Board has approved a Virtual Auction as a major 2021 fundraising effort. This will provide significant resources to accomplish our far reaching objectives.

We are looking for auction items and contributions.

You can check our site as we are building it. Our expectation is to start the auction and bidding starting May 22. Keep checking our auction site at charityauctionstoday.com/auctions/league-of-women-voters-of-new-castle-county-delaware-23053

Pre-Auction Happy Hour 

What is an online auction? How will this work?

From President Marj Johnson's May message:

...I wanted to highlight our upcoming auction which goes live 5/22. This is our big fundraiser this year and I hope you will donate an item ahead of time or purchase an item when it opens. Since we have never done a virtual auction before, we are planning an Auction Happy Hour Wed. 5/13 at 7 p.m. We will be providing information about how to access the auction site, how to bid, how you can pay or donate, and how you will receive your items. So be sure to join us so you can take best advantage of this first-ever virtual auction and help support the League.

Items for Auction

We would like to encourage you to donate an item to our auction, or if you have contacts in the business community, to reach out for products and/or services. We are keeping a spreadsheet of those members who have offered to contact potential donors. Please let me know who you will be contacting, so that we don’t duplicate requests.

If you have something of value that you feel would be a great item for the auction, please send League VP Dick Johnson a description of the item, estimated value, and if possible, a picture for inclusion in the auction. The LWVNCC is a 501c3 so you will receive a letter acknowledging your tax deductible contribution.

Contributions

We have donation opportunities from the $50 "First time Voter" level to the $1,000 "ERA" level. Please download this  Virtual Auction Donations Flyer for details and contact information.

We look forward to your donation and participation in this event.
