Silent Auction - Our PTO's Big Fundraiser

Friday, April 3, 2009 is the King School Silent Auction. Last year, we raised over $21,000 for King's PTO. If you saw the auction catalog or attended the event, you know that there were many wonderful items up for bidding: Theater tickets, a UMS concert, restaurant certificates, delectable food baskets, Tiger tickets and so on. At this time, we need solicitors to make phone calls/contacts with local patrons who have supported our auction in the past. Can you make/or contact at least 5 businesses? No "cold calls" here...you'll be contacting folks who know about the auction and have donated in the past.

Look for a Silent Auction meeting the week of January 12th. Details to appear in the next E-notes.

If you think you can help with solicitation or might be interested but not sure what it involves, please contact auction chair: Lisa Kohn email: lkohn@umich.edu or phone: 734-417-7129.
