An online silent auction to raise money for the ACC Foundation will run from Dec. 6 to Dec. 10.
The ACC Foundation is a non-profit corporation started in 1991. They collect and distribute gifts from private donors to help fund scholarships and programs at ACC.
This year, bidders will vie for themed gift baskets.
The Association of Professional Technical Employees (ATPE) is hosting the auction. They donate items and assemble the baskets, and everything is bid on online.
"The Association hosts fundraisers every year. For the last two years we hosted the ‘You Rock' fundraiser by encouraging people to buy rocks and saying ‘You Rock'," said Bethany Bell one of the leaders for the fundraiser.
APTE is asking members and non-member to donate items according to the theme of their campus.
Each campus has a different theme.
Rio Grande Campus's theme is "Night on the Town" with suggested items of tickets to fine arts, restaurants or dance lessons.
Riverside Campus's theme is "Fitness" with suggested items such as workout DVDs, yoga mats, and jump ropes.
"There is no specific dollar amount," said Bell. "The more the merrier."
