Auction

Are you interested in donating to our auction?  We have many different opportunities to donate to our auction this year!

  • Click the Auction Donation tab on the right-hand side of the screen to submit an item via our webform.  A staff member will be in contact with you to make arrangements to collect the item.
  • If you are short on time or live far away, but would like to support the auction, we have an Amazon Registry full of items.  If you purchase from the registry, the item will ship directly to our office.
  • Another option for those of you who would like to contribute but do not want to choose any items, we have a monetary donation link for you.  All money collected from this link will go towards auction items.
  • New this year to our cocktail hour, the Bubbly Bar!  We are looking for donations of champagne at all price points.
  • For anyone/any family affected by T1D we offer the opportunity to create a Dream Basket.  These baskets can be themed to reflect your hobbies and interests.  Each basket should be a minimum of $250 and will be displayed in our Dream Basket category during the event.  Each basket will have a special recognition tag with information about the donor and their dream of a world without type one diabetes.

If you have any questions, would like to discuss donating to the auction, or need to arrange auction item pick up, please contact Danielle Hunt at dhunt@BreakthroughT1D.org.
