The Greater Lakes Region Children's Auction is an annual event held every December in central New Hampshire. The fundraiser made $2,100 in its first year and has come a long way with the help of countless volunteers and donors who have helped turn it into a major campaign on an annual basis. Over the 42 years that the community has come together, over $8.6 million dollars has been raised for local charities that focus on helping local children and families in need, all through volunteer efforts, community donations and corporate sponsorships. Local companies support the Greater Lakes Region Children's Auction by providing cash donations, sponsorships, and staff, allowing employees to serve the community at the event during what would normally be work hours.
The Auction has more than 700 hundred volunteers and collects thousands of donated auction items from the community. All registered bidders can view all the items as soon as they are listed and place max bids on any item! Visit ChildrensAuction.org for all the information or call 603-527-0999!
The Auction buzzes with activity as phone bank volunteers cheer at over-bids. Items at the auction range from gift certificates to local businesses, sports collectibles, concert and sport tickets, autographed memorabilia, furniture, vacations, home décor, children's toys, electronics and great holiday gifts.
Everything is donated; phone service, lights, auction items, computers, the location where we hold the auction; all donated! Even the food is donated by local restaurants which provide meals for the all-volunteer staff throughout the week.
