MARDI GRAS UPDATE
Auction Item Donations
A large variety of items in all price categories is crucial for a successful online and live event. ICCS families are asked to contribute to our Mardi Gras by donating an item or securing a donation from a local business or restaurant. (Cash donations are needed and welcomed as well.)
As of today, we have just a few commitments for item donations. Remember, as an extra incentive to contribute an item as soon as possible, all families who have completed an online donation form by 8:00am Monday, January 10 will be entered into a drawing for a FREE MARDI GRAS TICKET! This can be an item you purchased as a family donation or an item or gift card you secured from a business.
If you have already purchased an item or know what you plan to donate, please complete the online donation form as soon as possible. We will not need the actual item until the week of Feb. 14th. Submitting your item description early will give bidders a chance to see what we have available and increase interest. While all donations are appreciated, we encourage everyone to shop local if possible and support our Memphis businesses and restaurants. A list of suggested items is below.
