Art for Hope Online Silent Auction

Help us sponsor refugees left behind in the chaos of war, to reunite them with their families here in Canada. You will help them find safety, peace and hope.

Because the fact is, sometimes families fleeing armed conflict and persecution receive the good news that they can resettle—only to learn that a child or parent must be left behind in the upheaval.

All proceeds from the Art for Hope Silent Auction go to the Mennonite Central Committee’s Crossing Borders Hope Fund, to sponsor left-behind refugee family members.

We have a great selection of amazing artwork available, from paintings to pottery, original photography to digitally-rendered art.

It’s easy to bid online. You’ll be notified by email of competitive bids and, if you’re the winning bidder, we’ll take care of the delivery of your artwork.

Bid today, and bid often! You’ll have a wonderful piece of art that’ll enhance your home or make a great gift, and you’ll help reunite refugee families in Waterloo Region.

Tax-deductible receipts for the amount given above the minimum bid are available upon request (if the winning bid is at least 125% of the minimum bid).

Tax receipts are also available for a direct donation of money into the Mennonite Central Committee Crossing Borders Hope Fund:
