No one to call me Mama....

I'm feeling extra childless today. Missing Saoirse running around and playing with all her toys. Missing seeing all her little friends running around. Toys aren't supposed to get dusty.

Calling All People with Cool Stuff!


We are putting together our first annual auction to benefit the Fitzgerald Cancer Fund. I'm really excited about it for a couple of reasons. One, we have been collecting these items for almost a year now, and i'm pretty done with them taking up space in my house. But more importantly, I can't wait to see what other items we get from our lovely followers and supporters, and how much we can raise to help Kids with Neuroblastoma! 

I have been starting to catalogue all the items, and there are some great things in the group already. Art, antiques, handmade gifts, collectables... well, I can't spoil the surprise, now can I. There will be some great items for holiday gifts, so save some of your holiday shopping dollars to help a great cause! And, you can take a tax deduction for your donation! Not bad for spreading some holiday cheer. 

If you have something you might like to donate, contact us! Spread the word, and share with your friends. There will be something for everyone! 



Calling all Artists, Collectors, Antique Lovers, and Friends! We are planning an Auction to benefit the Fitzgerald Cancer Fund! 

We have started collecting donations for our first annual Arts and Artifacts Auction which will be held online between Thanksgiving and Christmas (exact dates TBA). We need more items to make this auction a big success! Here are some of the things we are looking for...

2D and 3D Art Pieces (eg: paintings, photos, sculptures)
Sports Collectables/Memorabilia (eg: signed shirts, photos, balls)
Small Collectable Items and Antique Pieces (eg: glass, cameras, collector plates, old toys)
Handmade Gifts/Practical Items (eg: knit items, bags, blankets, toys, quilts)

These items will be shipped to the winners, so please keep to manageable sizes and weights if possible. If you have something you would like to donate, please contact us at info@fitzgeraldcancerfund.org.  We will need to receive the items by November 21st. Don't limit yourself to the list above - Be Creative! 

Thanks everyone! I look forward to seeing what you all find!
