Silent Auction Background
Every year, since the 16th Annual Huntington's Disease Society of America's Convention in San Diego June 2000, the HDSA National Youth Alliance has held a Silent Auction immediately before the Awards Banquet on Saturday night.
The funds raised help support the NYA Annual Convention Scholarship Fund. The NYA Convention Scholarship is open to any member of the NYA who, due to financial hardship, needs support attending a HDSA National Convention.
Each year the NYA Silent Auction has been huge success! However, none of this would be possible without the generous support from our HD families, HD Chapters & Support Groups, the HD Centers of Excellence's, our family & friends, as well as the dedication and hard work of all the NYA members!
2011 Silent Auction
The 2011 Silent Auction was another great success helping the NYA raise money. Thank you to everyone who bid on the items and to all our NYA workers who put together a fabulous group of items.
2012 Silent Auction
This year's Silent Auction will be the most exciting ever as the auction items will be displayed all day in the Exhibit Hall, which will allow all attendees to take their time to see what's available and place their bids.
Supporting the HDSA NYA 2011 Silent Auction is something you can do together as a family! Sometimes for under $10.00 or $20.00 you'll find that you can put together an item to donate for the NYA Silent auction and have fun with your family or friends making it! Homemade items have gone over really well at past NYA auctions too! A basket of goodies from your home state, jewelry baskets, and autographed items are other huge hits!
Contact Mynelly Perez, mperez@hdsa.org, for any questions or ideas for the 2012 Silent Auction at the 27th Annual HDSA Convention in Las Vegas.
