Auction Ends: Mar 13, 2009 12:00 PM EDT

Auction Closed! Thank you for your participation!

The Briefcase Race & Online Auction proceeds support all financial needs of the Faulkner Breast Centre, including but not limited to, much needed equipment upgrades, patient support and educational services, as well as the continued efforts of the Faulkner Breast Centre Research Fund at Boston's Faulkner Hospital.

Founded in 1988, the Faulkner Breast Centre is actively involved in not only the treatment of patients, but also clinical research to broaden medical knowledge about the causes and effective treatments of breast disease. Over the past seventeen years, the Briefcase Race at Loon Mountain has raised over $800,000 to help the Faulkner Breast Centre in the fight against breast cancer.

The 2009 Briefcase Race Online Auction is now closed. Thank you all for taking the time to point, click and bid in order to support the Faulkner Breast Centre. The bidding was hot and intense, and all for a great cause. Congratulations to everyone who:

  • placed a winning bid
  • generously donated an item for auction
  • participated in the fun Saturday March 7th at Loon Mountain
  • invited family, friends and community to donate or make a bid to build a better and healthier world

Thank you to our sponsors this year, TJX, WCVB Channel 5, Mix 98.5,  Viewpoint Creative, Suffolk Construction The Gem Group, Loon Mountain, InnSeason Resorts, Amoskeag Beverages, and Pixel Bridge.  We had a blast at Loon and hope you did too.
