"We did such an awesome job raising money to aid the mighty mission to fight for animals everywhere. The auction was a phenomenal success with a total of 53 items submitted and all 53 items SOLD! We raised over $4,600 for Pasado's Safe Haven this year!
We had a pretty amazing variety of items out there this year, and I don't know if I've ever been more proud to be involved with this auction.
One of my favorite parts of being involved with and running this auction has always been seeing new faces I haven't seen before, and some I have, when they come to check if they won at item they were really excited about. The absolute joy that shows up on people's faces when they find out they did in fact win that item they were really hoping they won is the most amazing feeling. And the amazing artisans and populace members that contribute to that joy deserve a huge round of applause.
Often at the end of the auction I get two questions asked a lot. The first question is usually "how much did my items sell for". The second question is usually "who got it".
There's a lot of reasons people ask those questions, and I'm not here to judge you for asking or tell you to stop asking, I will always answer the questions for you. But what I am here to ask is that you care less about how much money your item made and care more about how much joy the person who won that bid is going to get out of that item.
And remember that even if your item doesn't sell for how much you wanted it to sell for, it's almost guaranteed to bring joy to somebody in this wonderful game we're all playing, All while raising money for a worthy cause. And I just want to thank you so much for taking time to be a part of that.
