MGoAuction 2017 - Raising funds for The Michigan Managers and Athletic Trainers Scholarship
THE MGOAUCTION IS BACK! This time out the University of Michigan alums who brought you the Bernard Maloy Cancer Scholarship Auction have been asked to help launch a new scholarship at the University. The Michigan Managers & Athletic Trainers Scholarship will be awarded to a rising senior serving as a volunteer trainer or managers for a University of Michigan varsity sport. Our dedicated student managers and trainers pour in as many if not more hours than our Michigan student-athletes without receiving the same benefits. These students reap educational and professional benefits from their experiences, but it comes at a significant cost in terms of time commitment. While their peers are paid for part-time jobs, and some for internships, most student managers and athletic training students are not. Providing scholarship support for these students is a meaningful way to enhance their student experience. All of the proceeds from your bids will directly benefit these University of Michigan students who help our Victors Valiant be the Leaders and Best. Please help our efforts to thank them for their work for our teams. So please, bid high,and bid often to support a Michigan undergraduate and Go Blue!
SEE SOMETHING YOU LIKE - "WATCH" THE ITEM!!
Make sure to put a "Watch" on items you want to bid on once bidding begins (though keep your eyes open for items that start early as we tend to get impatient).
"BUY NOW" ITEMS
This year's online auction has a few new opportunities for you the bidders to grab some great Michigan gear and memorabilia. This year we're offering a group of "Buy-Now" items wherein you can buy as many of the items as you would like. Keep your eyes open in August for the first of our "Buy Now" items.
Please note: These funds constitute a gift for endowment, and distributions will be made in accordance with the University's then existing endowment distribution policy. Any surplus distributions from the Fund during any period may be accumulated for later use for the above purposes or may be added to the principal of the fund at the University's discretion. Shipping and applicable tax are added on to the winning bid. Shipping of items does not occur until after the winning bidder's credit card is charged and cleared by University. This process typically takes three weeks.
