Donate to the PABA Silent Auction

Submitted By: FabulousRob on January 15, 2010 No Comment

Every year, PABA throws an annual Winter Party to celebrate our members’ successes during the past year.  As part of this festive event, PABA hosts a Silent Auction in support of the organization’s mission and operations.   Hundreds of PABA members and other business community leaders have donated fabulous items in the past. If you are a previous donor, please accept our gratitude for your support.

As we now prepare for this exciting event, we are writing to ask that you please consider donating to the PABA Silent Auction.

Our goal is to raise over $20,000 for PABA.  All money raised will go into the PABA General Fund, which supports the organization’s mission.  With these funds, PABA will continue to provide opportunities for LGBT and allied businesses to network, grow and thrive.  In past years, PABA has also contributed some of those funds to the PABA Scholarship Fund, which provides scholarships to students who are LGBT or are from LGBT families or households.

Your donation item may be auctioned as a separate entry or it may be included in a package with other items. (If you have any questions about what sorts of items would fit well into packages, please contact us, and one of our committee members will respond quickly.)  The Silent Auction will be split into at least two groups with staggered end times, so feel free to donate multiple items which can be included in both sections.

Top Five Reasons to Donate A Silent Auction Item:

  1. Your donation goes to help a great organization, and you will be recognized as an active supporter of the LGBT community.
  2. Your business will be featured and linked on our PABA Silent Auction web page – www.pabasilentauction.com. Donate early for maximum exposure.
  3. Your business will be promoted at the event – there will be limited space for you to offer business cards or other promotional material at the Silent Auction tables.
  4. People will have an opportunity to try your goods or services.
  5. Did we mention the exposure for your business on our web site and at our event?  It is worth mentioning twice!

If you would like to donate items to the PABA Silent Auction, please  go to the website www.pabasilentauction.com and fill out the donation form. You may reply to this email if you would like more information.

Also, please feel free to join us for the festivities on February 24, 2010.  More information to come!
