Volunteer Opportunities: Auction Committee

The Auction Committee plans and organizes the annual Alumni Council Auction every year with proceeds benefiting scholarships at Stonehill.  Committee members are charged with obtaining items for both the silent and live auctions of the evening, coming up with theme and decor ideas for the event, and working closely with the Alumni Office to make the event successful.  

The 2006 13th Annual Alumni Council Auction  raised over $55,000.  The proceeds benefited the Robert G. Cummings `61 Scholarship Fund.  Approximately 200 guests attended this sold-out event.  With more than 400 donated items, the evening had competitive silent and live auctions with items ranging from gift certificates to local restaurants to fine jewelry to weekend getaways.  The Stonehill College Alumni Association, the Auction Committee, and the Office of Alumni Affairs would like to thank everyone who donated items and their time to the auction and to those who attended the event.
