Every bid goes towards sponsoring a child, helping to provide access to essential educational support for those who learn differently.
Successful bidders are entitled to a tax deduction of 2.5 times the amount paid above the market value of the auction item. For example, the first auction item is valued at $7,000; a tax deduction does not apply for the first $7,000. Only the amount exceeding $7,000 qualifies for the tax deduction.
