It is not clear where the phrase “Chinese Auction” came from, but it is a wildly popular form of fundraising that is simple to put in place, extremely profitable and a lot of fun! A Chinese Auction is an event at which you bid for items with small tickets that have a predetermined dollar value. The tickets typically come 25 per card and are perforated for easy separation. Bidders win by either 1) placing the highest dollar value of tickets into a container placed next to the bid item than anyone else (a “silent auction”), or 2) increasing their odds of being chosen from a hat by placing a higher number of tickets into a container than anyone else, thereby increasing the likelihood that their ticket would be drawn from that container at the end of the auction. The reason for a Chinese auction need not be a special occasion; it could simply be a good cause or the spark for a good time. The items to be auctioned can be anything that your imagination allows (see below).

how much money do the victims and their families need? i understand medical bills, time off work, etc but with all these benefit shows and the dime memorial fund, they must have a ton of loot.

there will be a special event held for Nathan Bray's (Damageplan shooting victim) son on that day
