Dedicated Time in Front of Determined Bidders
Books2Eat is a fantastic opportunity to promote your product and services. Our silent auction packages are well received and very popular among our audience. As the evening progresses the coveted items draw a crowd and the bidding becomes a flurry of fun.
Donate In-Kind
We are currently looking for silent auction and raffle items, and encourage local businesses to donate their products and services. Don’t miss your opportunity to showcase your company in front of one of the most influential audiences in Edmonton.
If you are a local business and would like to participate in our Books2Eat Silent Auction and Raffle, please contact Monica Walker at 780-496-7055 or by email at mwalker@epl.ca.
Great Packages, Great Cause
Past donations have varied and ranged from gift cards to products or services. We then package these together to create exclusive experiences such as a private dinner with the Mayor at Ruth’s Chris or a pizza party for 30 with an Edmonton Oiler.
