ARA Foundation Charity Auction plus 50/50 raffle happens Tuesday evening
By Brock Huffstutler
Attendees of The ARA Show™ will have the opportunity to give back to the equipment and event rental community while also participating in a fun, lively networking event at the 2023 ARA Foundation Charity Auction and Reception.
The event will be held Tuesday evening from 5 to 6:30 p.m. at the Orange County Convention Center North/South Building — SA1 (by the event segment exit), in Orlando.
Those attending this year’s Charity Auction and Reception also will have the opportunity to purchase tickets for a 50/50 raffle to help support the ARA Foundation’s educational and community-impacting programs (need not be present to win).
Dozens of items will be up for bid during the auction — facilitated by Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers (America). To view a full list of the items that will be up for bid, click here.
While the event is free for show attendees, a bid number is required to attend the auction, which will be facilitated by Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers (America). Participants can pick up a bid book at Registration, at the Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers (America) Booth No. 2046, at the ARA Foundation Booth No. 3718 — or at the auction.
The ARA Foundation Charity Auction and Reception is sponsored by Mi-T-M Corp. and Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers (America). Allied Financial Solutions, a show exhibitor, is offering six-months-same-as-cash financing on any auction item purchase.
