Athlete's Dream Auction

This auction is designed to appeal to the runner, yogi, cyclist, or anyone who is striving for a healthy and active lifestyle. Get athletes' staple items for a steal and help out someone in need at the same time!

Funds raised from this silent auction will go directly toward students in need of financial support for the study abroad program at Bainbridge State College. Many thanks to the sponsors who donated generously for this project and also to you, bidder, for your purchase.

Study abroad offers students the chance to really live in and understand different cultures - they leave a country better than when they arrived. As a teacher, I want to be able to give to students as I was given to.

This summer, I am traveling to Costa Rica as part of the University System of Georgia Study Abroad Consortium - developed specifically to provide the opportunity for community college students to study abroad. However, at Bainbridge State College, we have the poorest 2% of students in the nation and most of them work full-time in addition to going to school. For the majority of them, the cost of study abroad prohibits them from getting out of southern Georgia and seeing the world.

Please help me to help a Bainbridge State College student study abroad in Costa Rica for one month this summer. The program includes a homestay, two college classes, and many other enriching opportunities.

Thank you in advance for your generosity.
