I've only participated in one charity auction. I donated a head and shoulders and it brought in the most amount. The client hasn't had it done yet - she will this spring. She is upgrading to 3 people, full bodies I believe. She was waiting for her granddaughter to get a bit older. I was pleased with that.
I tried to get involved with a charity auction in Midland - which is a rich oil city close to where I moved last summer. We are here just a year - so my only requirement when looking into charities was to find one that was doing the auction asap - last Fall. I missed all of them - but could participate this spring. I am just not sure if it is worth it since we will be moving again. I know that travel within the state to do a portrait is possible, but I am wondering how many clients will realize this - or will it put them off if I move 5 hours away? All of my commissions have been close - no one has paid me to travel yet. I'd like a big commission in St Croix I think....
