The Benevolent: ‘Thanks for Giving’ online silent auction on Thanksgiving Day (starts Thursday 24th November)




Dear Supporters,

As you may have heard, we are about to launch our Benevolent ‘Thanks for Giving’ online silent auction on Thanksgiving Day (next Thursday 24th November) which will run for one week only and will hopefully raise valuable funds for The Benevolent – Your Drinks Industry Charity.  We have managed to obtain over 75 great auction lots and these can be viewed here - https://www.32auctions.com/thanksforgiving
The online silent auction will enable anyone in the trade as well as their friends and family members to bid for sought-after items that embrace amazing cultural experiences, luxury & rare wines and spirits, corporate hospitality and even whacky auction of promises, There are auction lots to suit every taste and budget. As this online auction is being held during the pre-Christmas shopping season, it will also represent the perfect opportunity for participants to find that special ‘one of a kind’ gift not normally available. There could be some real bargains to be had.  The more bidders, the more funds raised for members of the UK drinks industry in need.
Please can I ask you to spread the word amongst your work colleagues and even friends and family by forwarding the attached ‘launch flyer’, together with these details and please can you start looking at the items you may wish to bid for yourself.  To start bidding when the site goes ‘live’ on Thursday 24th November at 9.00 am, you will just need to register your details on the site by clicking here - https://www.32auctions.com/users/new
Don’t forget the auction is only operating for one week starting at 9.00 am on ‘Thanksgiving Day’.  Please see that the launch ‘flyer’ is attached.
Thanks for helping to support The Benevolent.
With best wishes,
David
