www.Shoredreamsforkids.org Charity Auction that will be held in Atlantic City during the NJPPC Poker Run Party is looking for donated items to be auctioned off.
This was a successful fundraiser last year for Shore Dreams and great exposure for those that had donated the items.
Hopefully many of you can be a part of it this year.

Re: Donation Request
Shore Dreams for Kids is a non-profit organization who throughout the year set out to raise money to hold an annual event for approximately 600 children from the Special Olympics as well as, mentally and physically challenged children, special needs children and their families throughout the area. Our annual event offers these children and their families a day of entertainment which includes a "carnival atmosphere" complete with games and small rides, an antique car display, food and drinks, live entertainment and most importantly Performance Powerboat rides in the Barnegat Bay, NJ. The boat rides are conducted by local Performance Powerboat owners, including but not limited to the New Jersey Performance Powerboat Club who volunteer their time & boats to share with those less fortunate.
We are seeking donations to help fund our event one of two ways. One would be a financial contribution and two would be by supporting our organization’s live Charity Auction, which will be held during the New Jersey Performance Powerboat Club’s Annual Atlantic City Overnight Poker Run, Friday June 22, 2007 at Trump Marina in Atlantic City, NJ. We are hoping to obtain a variety of marine industry auction items (apparel, gift certificates, products, services, etc.) and are asking you for a donation of your product(s)/service(s). We need all types of auction items and you will be publicly recognized for your donation at the auction.
To be a participant in our auction, please indicate the items you wish to donate on the enclosed form and return the form along with your donation. It is important that you indicate the exact name and retail value of each of your donations in order for us to designate an appropriate opening bid. Please remember, Shore Dreams for Kids is a 501c(3) fully exempt Not for Profit organization and as such, your donation is tax deductible according to the standard IRS guidelines.
Our event would cease to exist without the help of a wide variety of companies and individuals who donate their time, services and hearts to this one day event. The reward of seeing the smiles and children's eyes light up from all that is shared with them is truly immeasurable. So please help us keep the smiles growing by showing us your support.
