(23,954 posts)Soooo, what about this? Any creative ideas and suggestions?
What if, as a community, we have an auction to raise money for DUers who need some help and are on Wishadoo!'s Wishlist? Can you think of what some DUers could contribute for such an auction and/or what you might bid on?
One DUer previously mentioned that he/she could offer horseback riding classes; another is a tie-dye queen and can offer lots of tie-dye merchandise.
Maybe auctioning lunch with a beloved DUer or an autographed book from our published authors?
I'd be happy to have DU itself benefit if we were to collaborate and admins want to participate in some way. Hint, hint.
There are talents and skills galore within the DU community, so surely there are some creative things that can be auctioned, even if they're only able to be appreciated by those of us in this community.
Edit to add that if you're wondering how it would work, technically, one of Wishadoo!'s unused tools is a marketplace, which is like "ebay for good." It has the auction and buy now features, just like ebay.
