Pink Friday charity auctions - the rules

[TimeForYou]

I agree entirely with Bykimbo's comments,I have sought permission from BCC for the use of their Logo's,Banners,& Photographs. I have agreed to send all monies raise to them in London personally or, through Smiffy who is well set up to handle it.
I would be very supportive of the ACS.I hope you decide to run with an Auction for them ,any help for any Charity cause is great.

The American Cancer Society has the same thing except it's called "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer"

How would I go about setting up the auction?

It's not the same thing. I've looked at their site and it's all about walking events, hence the "taking strides". It looks very worthwhile, but not at all like Pink Fridays.

Why not wait until there's a lull in the fund-raising here, then launch your own ACS mini-campaign? Or perhaps contact ACS and ask if they have any special fund-raisers coming up that you could join in with?

I am not familar with the orginisation in America, But I would do it there the same way as I did it here..

knock on doors,phone them,e-mail them,chase,them and annoy them, till you get what you want.
Then do it all again to get more



Good luck and don't take NO as an Answer

No, there are several different ways of raising money with walking being only one of them, you can set up a team to raise funds through donations in various ways, which is what I have just finished doing. What I was asking about was how to set up the auction with eBid. Do I just email them or what?

I don't understand the question.

You know how to sell here. What's left to ask? Sorry, you've lost me. What aspect are you stuck on?

How do we set up the auction site on eBid. Do we just open a store or go through eBid Management?

What auction site? What store? Can you point to the equivalent thing for pink fridays so I can understand what you're talking about? Sorry, I'm completely lost!

Does anybody else understand what's being asked here and can help out?
