I am calling upon each and every one of you. We are looking for really great auction items for the upcoming state convention. Gift certificates of at least $50. Art, jewelry, vacation stays, gift baskets, baked goods, and more. This auction is an important and fun fundraiser. If you are willing and able to help us solicit and collect some amazing auction items? Please, be in touch with me. Call me at 303-929-2369 or email <a href="mailto:kevan@nfbco.org">kevan@nfbco.org</a>. Please consider making this a priority for your chapter or division. Perhaps you do business with a restaurant, retail store, or company that you could ask to donate a nice item for the cause. My auction co-chairs Gary Van Dorn and Maryann Migliorelli will be applauding you with the deepest appreciation. Please help make this 2023 auction the best auction ever! We can not do it without you. If you need help, support or advice give me a call. If you need our official auction donation letter please reach out to me.
