Bid High for Hope is an online auction and fundraiser for Hope House. "Bid High For Hope" helps to cover the many costs of running a shelter, advocate and education program across our 5-county service area that aren't covered by grants and federal funds. From admin to groceries to toys and diapers to gas for getting to the hospital to printing brochures for survivors to learn about our services that we leave at hospitals/police stations, and more - these funds help Hope House serve our community the way you've come to expect.
What kind of items can I bid on?
Amazing gift baskets, Staycations, Salon Products, Art, Air Compressor/nail gun & other tools/home improvement items, Restaurant experiences, Movie Tickets, and so much more! PLUS a VIP experience for 2 at the Late Show with Stephen Colbert in NYC!
32 Auctions will walk you through it step by step, click on "Create An Account" and you'll be on your way. If you've ever bid on a site like ebay, you will find it works much the same way, you can set a "maximum bid" and 32 Auctions will automatically bid for you up to that amount. There are two types of bidding you can use:
A proxy bid allows you to enter the maximum amount you're willing to spend with the goal of winning the item at the lowest possible price. The system will bid for you, up to your maximum proxy bid amount, as additional bids are entered on the item.
An exact bid is the amount you want the item's current selling price to immediately jump to. Your bid amount will not change as additional bids are entered on the item.
