Mystery Centerpieces are part of the excitement of the Dallas Women's Foundation Luncheon. Last year, these centerpieces raised $75,000 for the Dallas Women’s Foundation! The minimum value of the centerpiece is $500 and bidding starts at $250.
Each centerpiece contains:
• 5 tickets to Ralph Willard’s Tower Antique Show
• 2 tickets to Dallas Theater Center performance
• $50 Dave & Buster’s gift card
• $25 Elixir Salon & Day Maker gift certificate
• Er’go Candles soy candle
• Gifts from Fossil
• Mary Kay Brush Collection
• Waterford Crystal Frame from Verizon
• And a mystery item worth between $100 and $5,000. Mystery items
include designer jewelry, shopping sprees with fine retailers, roundtrip
airfare, weekend luxury hotel stays, original artwork and MORE
Each table can decide how to approach the bidding. Here are some ideas:
- Bidding War: An individual may start the bidding at $250 and table guests increase the bid until the bidding is concluded.
- Lottery: Each person at the table donates an agreed-upon amount (example, $25). Then, draw names to see who wins the Mystery Centerpiece or divide the contents between table guests
- Be creative! Come up with your own way to bid.
Please bid generously, remembering that the Dallas Women’s Foundation gratefully accepts your contributions on behalf of the many women and girls who will benefit from your support. All donations, minus the value of the Mystery Centerpiece items are tax deductible. Cash, checks, and credit cards are accepted.
Send an e-mail to your table guests letting them know about how your table will handle the Mystery Centerpieces.
