ProKids 14th Annual Auction Set for November 4th
We hope you’re planning to join us at this year’s ProKids Auction for Kids on November 4 at the Hyatt Regency Cincinnati. It's not only a vital fundraiser that allows ProKids to serve more children, it’s an enjoyable way to meet new people, see old friends, and share the passion for helping foster care children! This year we anticipate that over 400 supporters will attend.
Last year’s auction brought in $130,000—about 20% of our annual budget—making it one of ProKids’ most important fundraisers and one of the most successful CASA fundraising events nationwide.
The festivities kick off at 6 p.m. with a patron party preview and silent auction at 7 p.m., followed by a dinner buffet served with wine, and a live auction at 9 p.m. Tickets are $100 per person ($125.00 for a patron) Bryan and Penny Worley and Jerry Jenkins, Auctioneers from Worley Auctioneers and Appraisers, will once again officiate the bids. Kelly Red and the Hammerheads, a blues and rock band that regularly plays at Jeff Ruby’s Restaurant downtown, will provide entertainment and great dancing!
We still need auction items! ProKids CASAs are busy securing over 400 items for the auction, including trips, jewelry, behind-the- scenes tours, a Reds Private Suite, original artwork, gift certificates, a puppy and lots more. However, we are always looking for new auction items and Corporate Sponsors for this event. This fundraiser attracts hundreds of the areas top business and philanthropic leaders, which is a prime audience for sponsors. Please join us in this exceptional opportunity to reach an extraordinary market and help a vital cause.
