About Our Auction

Since our founding in 1963, Beth David has been at the forefront of the Jewish experience in Northern California.

The men’s and women’s groups of Congregation Beth David are focused on the spiritual work of transformation and on the creation of a Jewish path that is authentic, profound, and helps all members of our community seek and live their purpose to the fullest.

The proceeds of this Silent Auction will be used to support both our Congregation and community outreach activities. Our outreach activities have included donating food and school supplies to local agencies, joining other faith-based communities to provide a safe place for people living in their vehicles to stay overnight, supporting women’s shelters, and more. Our activities have remained successful for many years thanks to our volunteer members and generous donations from local businesses.

Proxy Bidding:
An online Proxy Bid allows you to enter the maximum amount you are willing to spend in advance and then lets the system bid for you up to that amount. For example, if an item is currently selling for $10 and you enter a proxy bid of $50, the system will automatically bid for you at listed increments when competing bids are placed until the selling price goes over $50. At that point, you will be outbid and someone else will be the leading bidder. You will only owe the amount the system has bid for you which will never be more than your maximum proxy bid amount. A proxy bid is a single bid and only shows up in the online bid history one time. Proxy Bids placed during the online phase of this auction will transferred to the live event where trusted volunteers will monitor items and update bids regularly on the bid sheets until 7pm on the night of March 6th.
