The University District Food Bank
presents its annual
Benefit Auction
Saturday, Oct. 24, 2015
St. Demetrios Hall
www.udistrictfoodbank.org
Welcome Friends of
the University District Food Bank!
Thank you for joining us for our annual “Take a Bite out of Hunger”
Benefit Auction! I’m proud to welcome you on behalf of our board of directors, staff and most importantly, our customers. This is our 20th annual
Auction, which continues to serve as the primary stream of funding for our
daily operations. So please give generously. We are grateful for our sponsors,
whose donations help to cover the event costs. Please thank them for their
generosity with your business.
The University District Food Bank continues to be a vital lifeline to those in
our community who need assistance. This year, the Food Bank will provide
over 2.3 million pounds of food to over 5,200 families in need. During the
last five years our home delivery program allowed us to expand outside of
our walls and reach people where they live. In addition, our Packs For Kids
program now reaches eight schools. Through this offering we aim to help
children on school lunch programs have reliable and nutritious food over the
weekends.
As many of you know, construction has begun for the new Food Bank location on Roosevelt Avenue NE. We plan to move into that wonderful new
building next June but our Capital Campaign team is still working to raise
all of the funds necessary to finish construction. Every dollar you contribute during tonight’s Fund-A-Need will result in matching funds targeted
towards the Capital Campaign. You will hear more details during the Live
Auction.
Thanks to the support in our community, the University District Food Bank
remains a steadfast pillar of support in Seattle. That community support
comes to us through food donations, money and volunteer time. Every
month, our volunteers contribute more than 1,700 hours of service helping
to stock our shelves, pack and unpack donations, assist families in making
nutritious selections, and offer a kind word to everyone who comes through
our door. Our local grocery stores, community food drives and farmers at the
University District Farmers Market contribute food each week to keep our
shelves stocked. We receive financial support from local churches, schools,
businesses, foundations and you. We are all in this together, working to keep
all our neighbors nourished.
Special thanks to Paul Yunker, Paula Skarr and the Auction Committee
for their hard work preparing for the auction, and especially to you—our
guests for helping to make tonight’s event a success. Enjoy your evening and
THANK YOU for your continued support of our food bank.

Auction Rules
Silent Auction
At registration you will receive a bid number. No valid bids are possible
without this number. You must use only your own number. The Silent Auction begins at 5:30 p.m. when doors open. All items have an adjacent bid
number space opposite the desired bid amount. Each new bid must equal
or exceed the required increment as shown on the bid sheet. If an entry is
not legible, the next legible entry will be used. If you want to secure the
purchase of an item, write your bid number in the box labeled “Guaranteed
Purchase” and it’s yours. Once a Guaranteed Bid has been entered, bidding
on that item is finished.
Portions of the Silent Auction will close at three separate times during the
evening. The closing times will be announced. The bidding on that section
ceases when the closing is announced. The closing bid, circled by an auction
official, constitutes the winning bid. In the event of a dispute, the Auction
Coordinator shall act as the final authority.

Live Auction
Bidding will commence when the Auctioneer begins at approximately 7:30
p.m. To enter a bid, signal either the auctioneer or one of the spotters located
around the room by raising your bid number.
Use only the bid number assigned to you. Please hold your bid number so
the Auctioneer can easily see it.
The Auctioneer will acknowledge successful bidders at the conclusion of each
Live Item. Acceptance of this acknowledgement constitutes a legal contract
to buy. You will then sign an acknowledgement which will be brought to
your table.
In the event of a dispute between bidders, the Auctioneer shall have the sole
and final discretion to determine the winning bid or to re-offer the item in
dispute.
Dessert Dash
The Dessert Dash is a group activity. At each table there are Dessert Dash
bid sheets. When the auctioneer gives the signal, table guests will have an
opportunity to place their bids individually. The Dessert bid sheets will be
collected and tabulated by the assigned table captain for each table. The
table captain then writes the total of all his/her individual table bid sheets
on the front of the envelope. A runner will collect each table’s envelope and
order them from the highest to lowest. The Auctioneer will announce the
order and a person from each table will be able to “dash” and choose their
dessert. In case of ties, the first one to the table wins.
Best of Live Raffle Rules
1. Raffle tickets can be purchased at the Raffle table.
2. Each purchase includes a chance to win one Live Auction item.
3. The winning number will be drawn at the beginning of the Live Auction.
4. You must be present to win.
5. Ticket sales begin at 5:30 p.m. and will continue until all 100 chances
have been purchased.
6. You may charge your raffle purchase to your bid number account if you
have registered for Express Pay at Registration. All other purchases must be
made with cash at time of purchase.
Payment
Placing your bid number on a bid sheet or presenting it during the Live Auction constitutes a legal contract to purchase the item. All sales are final and
there will be no exchanges or refunds unless so specified at the time of sale.
All items must be paid for by the evening’s end unless you are using the
Express Pay system in which case credit card amounts will be processed by
the next business day. If you are not using Express Pay, payment of cash or
check will be accepted.
The signer/designated bidder must make payment for items that are jointly
purchased by two or more parties. The designated bidder shall be responsible for making arrangements for reimbursement from the co-purchasers.
The Check Out/Payment station will open at 9:45 p.m. Please do not begin
checking out until after this time. If you are using Express Pay a receipt will
be given to you at checkout marked PAID which will allow you to retrieve
your items at the Item Retrieval Station. You must receive a receipt marked
PAID before you retrieve your items.
All items not removed auction night will become property of the University
District Food Bank unless prior arrangements are made.
Express Pay
This year we are using the Express Pay method of payment. Express Pay accepts Visa, MasterCard and American Express. When you register you will
have the opportunity to let the auction staff know your preferred method of
payment. If you elect to use Express Pay we will swipe your credit card and
verify your contact information. At the end of the evening you will be given
a receipt listing all the items you have won. You may pick up your receipt
any time after 9:45 p.m. It will be marked PAID and you can proceed to Item

Heaven Hills. After 14 months barrel aging, the wine was bottled in December 2007. The resulting wine has spice and dark berry and cherry aromas
with intense color and a surprisingly smooth finish. 425 cases produced.

Fight Hunger, Build Hope with
University District Food Bank
After more than 32 years in a church basement, in a space that is woefully
undersized for our community need, construction began last spring on University Commons, our collaboration with LIHI and YouthCare which will
bring us a new home and provide 49 units of low-income housing.
We’ve already raised more than $3 million toward the $3.6 million goal for
our new home. Construction is underway, but we need your help to ensure
that we will move into our new home next June.
Please consider making a personally significant gift in support of our capital campaign. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Food Bank needs
your once-in-a-lifetime capital support.
Your gift today ensures that our new home will:
❖❖ Be accessible to all our customers and volunteers.
❖❖ Offer a dry, comfortable waiting area,
❖❖ Provide wide, aisles for easy navigation through a larger shopping
area,
❖❖ Triple the amount of refrigerated storage space we have available for
the growing quantity of perishable donations we receive every day,
❖❖ Include a counseling room and classroom on-site to ensure that customers are connected to community resources that move them toward
self-sufficiency, and
❖❖ Feature a job skills training café that will offer young adults living in
residences above the food bank with an opportunity to build job and
life experience needed to maintain steady employment and earn a
regular pay check.
Make a gift or pledge to the capital campaign online or contact Joe in the
food bank office to learn more about this landmark project and how you
can help.
