Starting Feb 6, you can preview the items available for bidding and makeup your wishlist!
In 2011, thanks to the generous support of the regional companies and individuals, we received gifts valued over $14,000. These items were sold during the Online Auction and the Silent Auction. The MN IFT section raised over $9,000 for the IFT Foundation and for the MN IFT Scholarships. The committee is counting on your support to surpass this target in 2011. The Online Auction will be held from Feb 12-17, followed by the Live Silent Auction on Feb 21.
Learn more about the upcoming auction at the Online Auciton webpage.
