Online Bidding with Greater Giving

What You Can Expect

This year’s auction will use Greater Giving Online Bidding – allowing for a paperless bidding system. You will bid using your smartphone or tablet on silent auction items. Also, you can easily track Packages by “following” their activity without having to continuously return to a table or bid sheet.

Start your Holiday shopping early!

"Home For the Holidays”! This virtual event will be one of our school’s main fundraising sources this year, and we need your support; there will be holiday gifts, home improvement projects/services, private chef experiences, tutoring, and vacation packages just to name a few! Our teachers, staff, and administration have been working overtime to keep our school and children safe while providing a top-notch educational experience. Let’s get ready to bid! 

 

PRE-REGISTER HERE

You can pre-register to bid, view items and purchase pre-auction packages by clicking the START BIDDING button on the top, right-hand corner of the page. When you register, a cell phone number must be entered to receive text message updates on bidding information.

 

POD PARTY PACKS

(order HERE)

Though we can't commune like we usually do, we can still have fun and support our wonderful school. We've got you covered, as you can pre-order a "Pod Party Pack" to celebrate at home. 

And, though our auction is virtual, tickets sales in years past not only cover costs associated with a live event, but the in-person experience provides many more opportunities to raise additional funds for our school. This year, you can support Holy Spirit and our Home for the Holidays event by donating a portion of ticket sales to our cause. Help us begin to reach our goal by choosing one of the following options before the bidding even begins!
