SNAF Needs Auction Donations

Silent Auction to be held at the SNA Fall Conference in Phoenix!

Today more than ever, newspaper companies need help as they transition to multimedia companies. The SNA Foundation (SNAF) continues to develop new learning initiatives, research and reports specific to digital transformation. That work cannot continue without the generous support from our donors. Recent Foundation sponsored programs include multimedia e-learning courses, a specialized reporting symposium and a North American Innovation Mission visiting progressive media companies with followup best practices report and learning webinars (click here to learn more about the work of the SNAF).

This is where you come in...

Everyone has items that are new or in almost-new condition that they aren't using. Maybe it's tickets to a major sporting event, a gift card that's not up your alley or a bottle of wine from a local vineyard. These are the types of items that the SNAF needs for our silent auction to be held during the SNA Fall Publishers' and Advertising Directors' Conference in Phoenix in September. All contributions are tax deductible.

How to Donate

Popular donation ideas include:

  • Sporting event tickets
  • Cultural and arts tickets
  • Getaways/Travel
  • Golf
  • Jewelry
  • Wine
  • Dining certificates
  • Regional food items/specialties
  • Electronics/Technology
  • Industry-related services
  • Gifts/Collectibles
  • Music
  • Gift cards for retail outlets
  • Your choice - Be creative!!!

Be a Sponsor.

Don't have a specific item to donate? You can still support the SNA Foundation by becoming an auction sponsor with your cash donation. We can buy an auction item on your behalf with your cash contribution, or you can designate that 100% of your cash donation go directly to the SNA Foundation. Contact us at sna@suburban-news.org or 888-486-2466 for more details.

Tell Your Friends and Colleagues.

Do you know someone else who would be interested in supporting the work of the SNA Foundation? Please share the news of our auction with your family, friends and colleagues so they can be part of the excitement. Just forward this email to anyone you think is a potential donor.

Even Greater Recognition for Your Organization.

All auction donors and sponsors will be acknowledged for their generous support of the SNA Foundation. Donors and sponsors will be featured on-site at the silent auction and on our auction home page.

Especially for SNA Associate Members and Vendors.

We'll be heavily promoting the auction to the SNA membership and beyond. Support the SNA Foundation while gaining greater visibility for your brand and services to your target customers. And, the silent auction will be set up at the SNA Fall Conference. This is a great opportunity to gain additional exposure for your company with SNA conference attendees.

Thank you in advance for your support!
