Bridge the Gap fundraiser goes online

Bridge the Gap for Autism runs almost entirely on donations and sponsorships, and one of its big fundraisers every year has typically been a dinner and silent auction at Romy’s Holiday Inn.

This year, the event has been moved entirely online to WiscoBid.com due to the coronavirus.

Among the more than 100 lots for sale are sports memorabilia, Ducks Unlimited prints, special themed baskets, household items, fun items and much more. Bidding on the silent auction goes through April 27. All proceeds will go directly to Bridge the Gap for Autism.

WiscoBid.com is an online auction company located in Oconto Falls. This is the company’s first charitable auction.

Bridge the Gap for Autism is a Shawano 501(c)(3) non-profit organization created for those whose lives have been touched by Autism. Its purpose is to provide individualized client programs as well as strengthening family ties through education. It is always focused on raising public awareness of autism and other special abilities.
