About Me
- Jeanine
- I'm a surgery intern and a newlywed which means that I am torn between the two worlds of learning everything I can about my new husband and learning everything I can about surgery and how to take care of patients. It is a fine balance.

An auction? What do you do well? Bake? Clean? Organize? Diagnose? Try auctioning some of these things off to the higest bidder!
You could ask friends for items to put on ebay.
Or have a dinner at your house and charge your friends $15 a plate, and then have everybody bring old CDs or DVDs and have a silent auction during and after dinner.
Heck...with your wonderful baking, I'd have a good old-fashioned bake sale! And charge a lot for your goodies! :-) Or, "ulovebeth" has a great idea with the dinner...your cooking is yummy, too!
Thanks for the ideas. If you think of any more, please pass them along.
I have an ongoing bakesale going on. It's kind of fun...I love to bake. My mom held a Pampered Chef Party and is going to have a garage sale.
Thanks for the dinner idea Beth!
i appreciate the straight fwd approach of presenting the cause and asking for the money. i think ppl usually dont really want the candy or candles or other cheap products we a sell at a huge markup in the name of fundraising.
Ask for what you want and be clear that you saved them having to throw junk away later, and the entire $ they spend will go to the cause they are choosing to support.
