You may also set a maximum bid amount that you would want to pay for the item, and the system will keep bidding for you if others are bidding against you.

You may add bids until the auction closes on July 19th at 12:00 PM(CST).

The Foundation:
Our mission is to make targeted investments to develop and support engaged leaders who enhance a vibrant East Metro business community.

The Foundation grows leaders and communities by bringing business resources and community opportunities together. We advocate the need for leadership in helping our business community meet workforce challenges. We raise money to support our leadership development in the East Metro through the Really Big Time Raffle and The Annual Foundation Luncheon. 

We provide the following to our members and the St. Paul/East Metro community:

• Leadership programs to educate members on the issues facing our community
• Committed volunteers
• Fundraising initiatives to address the most pressing issues surrounding workforce development and education

The Foundation supports its mission to grow strong leaders through its flagship program, Leadership Saint Paul (LSP). Approximately 2,550 participants have completed this program over the last 46 years, learning about the issues and trends facing our community. Today, many LSP graduates are serving in leadership roles within local community organizations, corporations and non-profit boards.
