Ask and you shall receive!
I am in awe of all the incredible people who have stepped up to assist me with my fundraising endeavors and who have agreed to participate in our benefit auction. Donations have been rolling in and my earlier anxiety has been replaced with something so much sweeter.
It’s been raining men, and a few women, and I am so excited that I am about to bust!
Recently someone asked why I decided to do a Bachelor / Bachelorette auction. And the answer is simply that I wanted to do something different that would make people smile, connect unlikely liaisons and do a whole lot of good at the same time.
So what have I learned in Fundraising 101 thus far?
That this is going to be a wonderful event. That I may actually pull this off with relatively few glitches. That it may take us a penny at a time to reach the lofty goals I've set but I'm confident that we will get there. That I’m gaining invaluable information to use the next time around. And most importantly, I’m meeting and discovering a host of new people with the biggest hearts and the most generous spirits.
I’m really liking these lessons a lot!

Okay, I have one question, will there be online bidding? Even if some can't make it to the physical auction, can we look and bid online (LOL) Good luck with the auction.

Whoa, girl! I like that idea. You'll be able to start looking by Monday. And we'll accept your bids!
Keep me in your prayers!
