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 2024 ARA Foundation Charity Auction and Reception.
The event will be held Tuesday evening from 5 to 6:30 p.m. at the La Nouvelle Ballroom, Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, in New Orleans.
New to the auction this year is the opportunity to engage in online pre-bidding — get a leg up on the action by perusing items that are available and get your bids in early. Scan the QR code to take part. Pre-bidding will close at 12 p.m. CT on Tuesday.
Those attending this year’s Charity Auction and Reception also can purchase tickets for a 50/50 raffle here 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).
While the event is free for show attendees, a bid number is required to participate in the auction and reception. Participants can acquire a bid number at registration on site at the show, at the Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers (America) Booth No. 2731, at the ARA Foundation Booth No. 2832 or at the auction.
The ARA Foundation Charity Auction and Reception is sponsored by Ditch Witch, Mi-T-M Corp., Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers (America), SANY America and Trime US. Allied Financial Solutions, a show exhibitor, is offering six-months-same-as-cash financing on any auction item purchase.
