Our event
is a fundraiser that benefits the Children’s Leukemia Foundation of Michigan (CLF). Please consider helping us achieve our goals. CLF
is a non-profit statewide organization which provides information,
financial assistance, and emotional support to more than 3,300 families
of adults and children affected by leukemia, lymphoma, and other
related blood disorders. Until there's a cure, CLF is here to help
families overcome the challenges these conditions present.
Here’s how you can help:
Please
consider contributing an item to our silent auction.
You, your employer, or both can donate an item. Some
items that have sold well in other auctions are gift baskets, wine,
holiday items, children’s toy items, food items, gift certificates,
electronic equipment, spa packages, sporting event tickets, movie
tickets, restaurant packages, and books. Gift
Certificates work well for those business located outside the Dearborn
Area as they can easily be mailed to us and they also provide a way for
the winner to “shop with you”.
Mark you calendar now and plan
to attend the silent auction on March 6, 2011. The auction will be held in conjunction with our Expo
between the entrance and exit of the Dome Room of the Ford Community & Performing
Arts Center.
We encourage you to bring your friends and colleagues for a fun day of shopping
and pampering. Discount coupons for admissions can be printed by visiting our website at: www.showforwomen.com. You
generosity will be acknowledged during the event in our program that
will reach all attendees. In 2010, we welcomed more than 2,500
attendees. We raised more than $10,000 in 2009 for CLF teen
programs and we do this in memory of Brittany Crawford, Janeen’s
daughter and Julie’s niece, who lost her battle at only 16 years old on
December 1, 2002.
You can mail your silent auction
item to us or call to arrange a pickup. All donations must be received by us by February 28, 2011.
This will allow us to inventory the item and “promote it for display”.
