AUCTION
GLAD’s on-line auction just opened! Let the bidding begin! www.glad.cmarket.com (Can’t make the event? Absentee bids accepted on-line.)
Can you help us get additional great auction items?
Print out this auction donation reply form and ask your favorite restaurant, massage therapist or gym for gift certificates.
Ask your friends to donate their condo in Ptown for a week, their cottage in Maine for a weekend or time at any other vacation destination.
We love unique auction donations – behind-the-scenes, “can’t be bought” – got a great idea? We’d love to hear it! Private tours of museums, backstage at concerts or plays and memorabilia/collectibles are all fun items that really add value to the auction.
Contact me if you’ve got a lead and I’ll help write the letter that’ll seal the donation. Thanks for brainstorming!

Your generous support plays a vital role in our ability to take great leaps forward for the LGBT and HIV+ communities of New England. GLAD has been fighting for equal rights from its inception in 1978 - with such landmark victories as the Goodridge decision of 2003 that brought equal marriage rights to same-sex couples in Massachusetts.
