Christmas 3T Charity Auction – Auction your Time, Talent and Things for Charity
What is this about?
We are raising money through a fun auction on Facebook to help those in need. The money raised will go towards funding the following causes:· Purchasing essential winter clothing / items for the homeless to keep them warm in the winter· Christmas presents for children living in homeless shelters and orphanages.· Buying basic food items for a mum of two who is out of work and looking after her brother with disabilities.· Covering the running costs of the homeless distribution centre and essential items for Futprints Foundation.
How does it work?
The auction is quite simple and will be run on Facebook groups. All you need to do is ‘auction’ one of these – Time, Talent or Things (3Ts). For example, if you are an English Teacher and would like to offer 5 hours of 1-2-1 lessons, we can auction off with a starting price of 100 PLN. The highest bidder will get the item. Similarly, for physical items such as (2nd hand laptops, washing machine etc.), we will curate the items, set the starting price and offer them to the highest bidder.The Auction will start on the 20th of December and will finish on the Sunday 3rd of January at 9pm . With a live Facebook stream of the last hour closing the Auction.
