Description

 

For many years the Purdue University College of Health and Human Sciences Student Council has hosted a Silent Auction to raise money for the Mary Louise Foster Student Scholarships, which supports Purdue Health and Human Sciences students. Mary Louise Foster was a professor and academic advisor who received many prestigious awards and had a great influence here at Purdue. This scholarship is presented to two students in the college of Health and Human Sciences and has impacted numerous recipients over the course of many years. Our 26th Annual Silent Auction will be held on September 30, 2023. We aim to raise around $6,000 this year with the help of supportive businesses in the Lafayette and West Lafayette community. In efforts to continue a strong tradition and make our Silent Auction as successful as possible, we would greatly appreciate your understanding and generous support.

              A donation from you or your company will not only support our fellow students but also allow for your products and services to be recognized by our attendees and other bidders. Your business will be listed as one of our sponsors and will be featured on social media and our website. If you would like to donate to this great cause, we would greatly appreciate your support and kindness! Our Student Council has made it this far from donors and efforts from individuals like you or your company. We all truly value such contributions and support each and every year as we continue to grow and “Make Lives Better”.

Please note that if you donate a certificate to our auction, the expiration must exceed the September 2023 auction date in order for your donation to be valid for use. Please have your donation ready by September 16th, however, we can accommodate for donations after this date if they contain food products or if you are not quite able to meet this timeframe. We look forward to hearing from you!
