Scholarship Basket Auction

About the Basket Auction

Each year, the LWPTSA Council offers over $12,000 in scholarships to high school seniors and teachers within the school district. Besides the $100 budgeted donations made by each local PTA/PTSA unit, the annual basket auction is the only fundraiser we have to generate the remaining scholarship funds.

Ideas! Ideas! Ideas!

A variety of sizes and value for the baskets make the bidding more affordable and more interesting. Most baskets sell best in the $40 - $100 range. Your local unit may choose to donate a large or medium basket, or multiple smaller baskets

Your container does not need to be a basket!

Network early with the families in your local units to collect items than can enhance the marketability of your basket.
