We are working to put together our donations for this year’s garden party. Please check back in a month! We hope to have these supporters again plus more!
✨ Proxy Bidding for the Silent Auction is back! ✨
You can bid in the Silent Auction even if you can’t be at the party in person. Here’s how it works:
- Choose your favorite items!
- Fill out the proxy bid form (coming soon) to provide your max bid.
- Your proxy will begin at the minimum bid and increase your bid in set increments as needed.
- Bidding closes at 3:30 PM. You may win your favorite item for far less than its retail value!
- Winners will be notified, and items will be delivered to you after the event.
Of course, we’d prefer to see you in person—but know that you can still support a great cause even if you can’t join us.
Don’t miss your chance—join the fun and make a difference from wherever you are!
