Please donate items to auction fundraiser for raw community center & store

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends, As some of you may know, I am in the process of writing

a business plan to open up a raw food store and non-profit raw community

center in the Seattle area. In January 2007, I will be hosting a large

fundraising event which will include a silent auction, a gourmet dinner

at Seattle' beautiful Columbia Tower Club, speakers, dancing, and more!

For the silent auction portion of the evening, I have set a goal of

obtaining:

* Forty (40) auction items worth approximately $100 each * Five

(5) high-ticket auction items worth $500+ each * Twenty-five (25)

auction items worth approximately $25 - $75 each

The types of auction items I am especially interested in finding include

gift certificates to yoga studios, massage practitioners, raw food

places, farmers markets, grocery stores, book stores, spas, naturopathic

physicians, martial arts classes, vegetarian restaurants, nutritionists,

etc.; plane tickets or hotel night stays; and tangible goods such as

original art work or photography with raw foods in mind (e.g. farmers

markets, fruits, vegetables, nuts, etc.), specialty teas or dried

fruits, organic body care items, organic clothing, raw books or other

products, other services that everyone needs from time to time (e.g.

photography/portraits, accounting, legal, web or graphic design, etc.);

or anything else that you can think of that might support my mission!

If you are able to get your hands on any of these types of items, please

support the very important work that I am doing by donating to the

auction! If you don't have access to any of these things, help me

spread the word that I am looking by forwarding my email to your friends

and families -- every little bit helps and your assistance is greatly

appreciated! I have also attached an auction item donation form to the

Files section. I will be sending out more information about this very

exciting event next month once the details are solidified, and I hope

some of you will be able to make it! Take care, feel good, and have a

great weekend!!! Sincerely Monika Kinsman

Hi Monika,

Is the raw food store to be a private business? or non-profit, or is just

the community center part of it non-profit?
