Remember to Donate to OAFP Foundation’s Silent Auction Event!

Whether or not you are attending the OAFP Members Assembly Friday-Saturday, Aug. 7-8, at the Embassy Suites Dublin in Dublin, Ohio, please donate to the 18th annual Silent Auction!

The silent auction is Ohio Academy of Family Physicians (OAFP/F) major fundraising event and its success is dependent on your participation. Auction proceeds benefit OAFP/F programs like the SEARCH-enhanced Leroy A. Rodgers, M.D., Preceptorship Program; and American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) National Congress of Family Medicine Residents and AAFP National Congress of Student Members Delegate and Alternate Delegate Scholarships. Outcomes and program participant feedback show these programs positively impact student interest in the family medicine specialty.

Preview the great silent auction items already received: four (4) Columbus Clippers baseball tickets and parking pass; four (4) Columbus Crew tickets; Macallan cask strength scotch; Pampered Chef® wine glasses with flip flop coasters; kiwi stone necklace, bracelet and earrings; crystal caduceus paperweight; 24kt gold overlay caduceus earrings; Halloween themed basket; OSU Christmas themed decorations – including OSU Gnome and photo globe that plays the OSU fight song; silver plated business card holder; doctor themed necktie with heartbeat design; doctor-themed checkbook cover; World’s Largest Hershey Bar; (4) Cleveland Browns preseason football tickets and parking pass; and “Whorl of Color” framed and matted color photograph by Dr. Tennyson Williams.

If you plan to bring an auction item with you to the meeting, please complete and return the silent auction donation form, contact Julie Mask or call 800.742.7327 so OAFP/F staff can prepare the auction bid sheets and catalog before event. 

Silent auction donations are tax deductible. Thank you for your generosity and support!
