St. Jude Children's Research Hospital Fundraiser For those of you that are unfamiliar with our annual St. Jude fundraiser, we would like to take this time to explain how it works and our current progress.
Each year the National Auctioneers Association pledges to raise money to benefit the ongoing research conducted at St. Jude Children's Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. The hospital was established for the sole purpose of conducting research into catastrophic childhood diseases, mainly cancer, and is the largest childhood cancer research center in the world. In 2003 the NAA committed to raise in excess of $500,000.
Our goal, on the local level, is to contribute to this great cause through the sale of our company hats. At each personal property auction we conduct, we offer for sale a McBride Auctioneers Inc. hat. Whatever the hat sells for we match the price 100%. So be sure to bid on a McBride Auctioneers Inc. hat at our next auction and help the children of St. Jude.
Special thanks to all of you who have purchased our hats and to those of you who helped drive up the price by bidding on them. Thank you all! | 2005 Contributors | | McBride Match | 1/22 | Jack Moore | $22.50 | $22.50 | 1/22 | Jack Moore | $22.50 | $22.50 | 3/19 | Marsha Gerbitz | $10.00 | $10.00 |
