Silent Auction and Donations!!

I thought I would take a moment to share one of our other fundraising efforts that will be happening in the near future!

We are going to 'play' a game of 

Bigger or Better Challenge! 

The idea is that local businesses (from Dauphin to Neepawa (and other surrounding towns if they want to play as well) will challenge another business (or 2 or 3... as many as they want actually) to donate a gift that is "Bigger or Better" than what they have donated. There will be a letter from the church explaining our mission intent and another small note that is the challenge to another business. the note will state their name (the challenger), their business name and what their donation is! Businesses that choose to play with us can be given a tax receipt if they wish (that is the actual cost of the donation).
All the gifts will be collected and then auctioned off for our trip with a silent auction.
We aren't 100% sure of the date of the auction but I will keep y'all posted!

This is a "fun for everyone" fundraiser, as it not only helps us to go and build the house in Mazatlan, but it also helps encourage local businesses to be a part of it in a unique way; it is a fun opportunity to  have a friendly rivalry with businesses, trying to out give each other! And it will help bring free advertising to the businesses and hopefully new customers!
We will be making sure that the businesses participating are made known at the silent auction and other avenues as well!

If you are a business (large, small or if you want to participate with a new item donation for the silent auction) and you would like to be a part of our Bigger and Better Challenge, please let me know and I will make sure to get you the necessary paper work!
