In reading forums on
Etsy there was a post from a lady named Shannon who is the Conference Chairperson for the
Alabama Assocation of the Deaf. She was looking for donations for their silent auction this coming June. Here is more info regarding it. I was so excited to help out and do my little part to help this community. I sent her a little something for the silent auction and hope my small donation will help.
In June, 2007, the Alabama Association of the Deaf (AAD) will host its Biennial Conference in Birmingham. The Association provides workshops for both hearing and deaf individuals with the focus of enhancing their knowledge and skills so the deaf and hard of hearing may function more easily within the hearing community. Since its organization in 1912, AAD has helped the deaf community grow and become a strong voice in the state of Alabama.At this conference, we will be hosting a silent auction as a fundraiser in order to continue giving back to the community. We would be honored if you or your company would consider donating an item for the silent auction.
If you would like to make a donation to be auctioned off please contact
Shannon at

This is a great cause and I hope Shannon is successful in gathering donations for this function! Good Luck!
