Welcome to the Silent Auction bidding portal for the 8th Annual Lotus Ball!
Welcome to the Silent Auction bidding portal for the 8th Annual Lotus Ball, benefitting Maya's Hope. We are so excited to present to you this year's Silent Auction, featuring over 75 various companies. Here, there is something for everyone. Each package has been hand picked by our team to ensure that no one leaves empty handed. In this portal, all guests can browse the array of packages we are offering and can also, if so moved, make a direct monetary donation Maya's Hope!
At the end of the night, when all the glitz and glamour has faded, what we do here is save lives. Maya's Hope, our host committee, and every single one of our volunteers are dedicated to improving the quality of life of orphaned, impoverished, and special-needs children on a global scale. Whether providing funding for loving caregivers, vitamin-rich formula, or access to quality medical care, Maya’s Hope improves lives, one child at a time!
From all of us at Maya's Hope, we would like to say "Thank You" for helping us make miracles happen all over the world. Tonight's event could not be possible without our attendees and donors, including every company featured in this year's Silent Auction.
