. IAEM Headquarters is seeking donations of items
and services to be auctioned at the IAEM 2006 Annual Conference & EMEX Exhibit in Orlando, Florida, to benefit the IAEM Scholarship Program. Please approach your local retailers for contributions, and report all donations of items (with their value) to Dawn Shiley-Danziesen, IAEM Communications & Marketing Director, IAEM Headquarters, 703-538-1795 or shiley@iaem.com. If you are not attending the conference and plan to mail your auction item to IAEM Headquarters, please ensure that it reaches Dawn no later than Sept. 15, 2008.
The IAEM Scholarship Auctions have been exceptionally successful during past IAEM Annual Conferences, raising significant funds for the IAEM Scholarship Program. Please help us make this year’s event an outstanding success as well – and do your part to help the IAEM Scholarship Program – by contributing an auction item on behalf of scholarships for emergency management students.
- Past Scholarship Auction Hits. Some donated items that have been real hits in the past are: cigars, artwork (especially emergency management or fire-related), electronics (iPods, telephones, CD players), limited edition collectibles related to emergency management, jewelry, and collectible sports memorabilia.
- Want to Be a Donor, But Don’t Have Time to Find an Item? Let Us Shop for You. Donors are also welcome to send cash donations (to Dawn Shiley-Danziesen’s attention) earmarked for the auction. IAEM staff will shop for an appropriate item (or items) for the auction with the cash. The member will be listed on the scholarship auction item donor list.
- Tax-Deductible Donations Always Welcome. Your tax deductible contributions to the IAEM Scholarship Program are welcome at any time.
