Call for Item Donations for the 2010 Team AMGB…

by Missy Ward

Based on the success of last year's auction, I'm pleased to announce that we are going to be holding the Affiliate Marketers Give Back Charity Auction again, starting later this month.

I'm asking individuals and companies to please help us by considering a donation of an item or services for us to auction off on the website, so that we can hit our team goal of $50,000 for this year's Affiliate Marketers Give Back, Avon Walk for Breast Cancer, taking place on June 5-6 in Chicago.

Donated items will be listed on the website (along with information on the donor and a link back to their website) and folks can bid for the items by providing their name and bid amount in the comment section of the post. Winners will be announced after the auction ends and will also receive a link back to their website.

How You Can Donate an Item

Team Affiliate Marketers Give Back has never missed hitting our team goal, and we don’t want to start now. So please help us out if you can by donating an item to the auction. It’s a great way to get your name and services out in front of the masses and a great way to help raise money to fight breast cancer.

Please use this form to donate your item. Donations will be accepted through Wednesday, May 12th.
