The Gay Auckland Business Association (GABA) Charity Auction will be held on Sunday 20 October at the Auckland Langham Hotel’s Great Room. GABA is seeking sponsors and top quality items to go under the hammer. “This one of the biggest events in our calendar,” says new President Skot Barnett. “All the proceeds of the auction are channelled back to our community via the grants scheme, our tertiary scholarship programme and of course the significant investment we made in the Pride Festival this year supporting the GlamStand, funding of parade participants and floats. “For those who don't know, we raised $30,000 for the Trust last year, which was a record. This was an outstanding effort by everyone involved but if we are to do even better then we have to cast our net as wide as possible.” Contact GABA: info@gaba.org.nz
