Yes, I would like to donate to your silent auction!
The Rogue Winterfest is Josephine County’s largest holiday festival in December.

The Rogue Winterfest not only presents a great event but also provides vital funding for Josephine County’s mental health organizations; Options for Southern Oregon, Family Friends, and SOASTC. These organizations are especially feeling the financial impact during these economically challenging times. Last year the silent auction alone raised over $5,000 and your donation helped thousands of children, adults, and families with mental health needs in our community.

Our goal this year is to exceed $10,000 during the silent auction. To achieve this we need your help. In exchange for your donation we will proudly display your silent auction item during the Culinary Christmas Classic and Silent Auction Event, post item on the Rogue Winterfest web site, and announce in the next Rogue Winterfest E-Mail newsletter. The newsletter goes out to over 500 prominent community members. Any donations worth over $1000 will be listed in every newsletter.

Silent Auction items include vacation packages, household items, electronics, wellness and spa packages, landscaping services, golf, beauty and cosmetic services, lazar procedures, furniture, etc. By donating an item for the silent auction you will help us reach our goal of helping one more child, adult, or family with mental health needs in Josephine County.Thank you for your past support.

We hope you can be a part of this year’s 2010 Rogue Winterfest. Please email or mail the attached form with your donation item. The sooner we receive your silent auction donation the quicker we will put it on the web site for viewers to see.
