Raffle for Hurricane Katrina

Email auction for Courtney King Dye

Oil on canvas, 40 x 30" 2010 by Patricia Powers
white/gold background
Value $5,500.00

This painting was recently raffled off as a fundraiser for the World Society for the Protection of Animals, and won by Tami Hoag on March 7th. Tami has a large collection of my work and offered to use this new one to help our friend Courtney. With the assistance of Lendon Gray, Robert Dover, Maryanna Haymon, Kim Boyer and others of Courtney's supporters, we are offering "Pensive" for auction, with all proceeds going to her medical fund.

All bids will be taken by email, with the earlier time stamp breaking any ties. The current high bid will be posted regularly on the home page of this website and updated on Facebook and other sites. The auction ends at MIDNIGHT ON APRIL 6TH, and the winner will be notified immediately by email, and posted on this page. For questions or assistance use the email below.

Send your bid to: greydun@greydun.com

The winner may arrange to pick the painting up from Wellington Florida, or we will help you to arrange for shipping (not included).

Many, many thanks to everyone who bids for helping Courtney and her family, and to Tami Hoag for her amazing generosity. - Patricia Powers

Emergency Fundraising Raffle for Hurricane Animal Rescue

The raffle has ended, not as large a reponse as we had hoped, but the Open Studio sales will do well for our beneficiaries. Thanks so much to all of you for participating! For the NEDA news, scroll down.
Here is a letter from Noah's Wish we received:

We at Noah's Wish would like to express our greatest appreciation for your hard work and donation. The animals wish to thank you also. A receipt will be mailed as soon as possible.

Thank you so much for doing an Art Studio Sale. We really appreciate your efforts and willingness to help Noah's Wish. I have some flyers, pictures, and a couple table signs that I can send you in PDF form. This may help with any information that people may have about us. We have a Fundraising packet also.

Let me know if I can help you with your sale. It is people like you that keep us going.

We held a very successful raffle of a painting at the New England Dressage Assn Fall show, with all funds going to Noah's Wish disaster rescue for animals and the Humane Society of the US, earmarked for disaster relief for the animals. People were wonderful and delighted to participate in the best spirit of generosity and sportsmanship. NEWS FLASH: The NEDA board of directors has voted to match the amount raised by the raffle and send the funds to the same recipients. Three huge cheers for the NEDA boardmembers!
