Our goal is to raise $100,000 for Gloriae Dei Artes Foundation which supports 10 performing arts groups. The arts are more important now than ever before as they give hope, life, beauty, and truth in an era of wars, terrorism, depression, despair and negativity.

One group, Spirit of America band, models teamwork, respect, patriotism, commitment, discipline, and enthusiasm for a worthwhile goal. This led them to winning first place in the world at the International Championship of Marching Show Bands in 2006 in S. Korea .

Join this exciting opportunity to support the work of our organization and at the same time take a great vacation trip, cheer for your team or get that piece of art you've always wanted. Place your bids and keep checking to be sure that yours will be the winning one!
