For the fourth consecutive year, The Wreath Factory and Otter Creek Landscape host the annual Silent Auction For Education to benefit area schools.  From September 13 – 23, shoppers place bids on select furniture, plants and indoor and outdoor accessories and then choose their school of choice to receive a percentage of the winning bid.  All opening bids are marked at a discounted price to allow schools to collect the most dollars per item.  To date, the auction has raised nearly $2500 for area schools!

Top item for bid:

A landscape design by Otter Creek Landscape Designer and co-owner, Michael Beeck.  All proceeds from this bid goes directly to the school’s winning bidder.

 

 

2012 Participating schools:

• Fairview Elementary School
• Elkhart Lake School District
• Random Lake School District
• Sheboygan Public Education Foundation.
Information about each school is on display in The Wreath Factory’s showroom.

New this year Cash and Carry: buyers have the option to “buy it now” once the reserve is met.  Using the “buy it now” option, bidders don’t have to wait until the end of the auction to see if they won their item.  Signs throughout the store mark items available for bid and the winners are notified by phone after the auction.

    Good Morning,
    I am wondering who the recipient schools are?
    I am one of the directors of the Sheboygan Public Education Foundation, a 501(c)3 that raises funds to support our Sheboygan public schools. Is the Sheboygan Area School District a recipient of any of the funds from your Silent Auction for Education program? Is it possible to be included as a recipient organization? What information would you need to consider our organization? I would be more than happy to provide further information on our organization. You may also refer to our website http://www.the-e-foundation.org

    Thanks for the consideration!
    Lisa Liebl
    Co-Managing Director
