Ronald McDonald House Charities Online Rockin' Auction

For six years, the Ronald McDonald House’s annual Rockin’ Auction was a traditional, ticketed dinner-dance held in a local venue.

This fall, the fundraiser went online.

Accessing the auction through the Ronald McDonald House Web site, bidders registered a screen name and a credit card number. Over a span of three weeks, they could log in to keep tabs on their items of interest or up their bid before the boards closed.

“We made $64,000, which was $25,000 more than our previous best, and we had bidders from 15 states,” said Jane Kaylor, Ronald McDonald House executive director.
