Silent Auction
The O&O Silent Auction is a significant element in the fundraising goal of the O&O Awards Ceremony. All proceeds from the auction benefit the San Diego Architectural Foundation (SDAF), a 501c3, non-profit organization dedicated to education, and the promotion of outstanding architecture, planning and urban design throughout the San Diego region. These funds assist the SDAF in continuing its educational programs including BEEP (Built Environment Education Program), the administration of scholarships, hosting local events such as PechaKucha Night, Inside the Studio, architectural tours, film screenings and more.
Many thanks to all of the generous donors whose contributions made our 1st Annual O&O Silent Auction a great success, Through their support, we were able to offer a wide variety of premium items with values ranging from $100 to $6000, and with that, provided each guest an opportunity to participate in the auction action.
We aspire to make the 2nd Second Annual O&O Silent Auction as great, or greater a success by again offering our anticipated audience of 400+ an assortment of exceptional items including art, jewelry, event tickets, spa or salon packages, restaurant and retail gift cards, design services, and any other appropriate items. Preferably, each item donated will have an estimated minimum value of $100.
Your contribution will be prominently displayed on the night of the Orchids & Onions Awards Ceremony and Silent Auction, and your company name and link to your website will be listed below through November, 2010.
