In the spirit of the holiday season, the Vail Board of Realtors®️ Foundation is planning its annual holiday fundraiser to support its Annual Academic Scholarship Fund!
We will again auction off gift baskets for charity - each with its own special theme!
We will promote the silent auction solely online if we can't get together in person to celebrate due to COVID-19 restrictions.
100% of the funds raised for this event go to students receiving scholarships!
We enjoyed seeing all the creativity last year, and we want to do the gift baskets again. Please help make this a success! Each individual office – not company – is asked to participate. Your task is to create a special silent auction gift basket. Come up with a theme and build your gift basket to be the best one!
The winning office receives a $250 gift certificate for the lunch of choice!
Last year's winner was the "Broker's 'Oh Sh*t' Survival Kit" (see below). The more creative and unique, the better.
This year has been very challenging for businesses in our community, so we propose that you support local businesses by purchasing gift cards or items for your basket. Share with them that you are participating in the VBR Foundation fundraiser and see if they are willing to match your purchase.
A few basket ideas:
- Pampering Spa Basket
- Gift basket for Wine Lovers
- Sports Enthusiast’s package with primo tickets and lodging
- Home Improvement basket
- Dog Lover's basket
- Foodie's Feast with restaurant gift certificates
Timeline:

Send your basket information to [email protected]. Include the theme, a picture of your basket, and describe the content of what is in the basket.
December 1 - 8
