How can you help? Join our Team!

Thanks to our donors, the silent auction portion of this event has experienced remarkable success. It will be held during the Bucknell vs. American men’s basketball game in the Sojka Pavilion.  The key to our success has been in offering a variety of items for bidding.  We are respectfully requesting a donation of a gift certificate(s), item(s), or whatever you feel you can give.  Your generous donation would be greatly appreciated and viewed by hundreds of potential bidders at the game alone!  Your contribution will be listed in Suncom’s “Game Day Program” as well as recognized in the widely circulated Suncom newsletter and social media.  Suncom is a 501(c)(3) corporation; any gift or donation may be tax deductible.
