2024 Silent Auction

Each year at the International Conference, AEE holds a silent auction to raise funds for granting conference scholarships. A scholarship to the AEE International Conference provides a motivated individual with a chance to connect one-on-one with hundreds of fellow EE peers, instructors, and potential mentors - all in one place. 

Showcasing your product/service to potential customers/clients is as simple as making a tax deductible donation to our silent auction. Gain exposure for your business by having your product/service on display in this year’s silent auction!

A donation form for silent auction items can be submitted online. Simply fill it out by November 1, 2024 and your item will be available for bidding through the AEE Auction site. View Donation Guidelines here.

Local Treasures In-Person Silent Auction

We are thrilled to celebrate our 52nd International Conference in Estes Park, Colorado! Among the many exciting events, AEE will host both an online silent auction and an in-person silent auction with the theme Local Treasures.

All members are invited to participate by bringing a bag or basket which showcases your hometowns flavors. This is your chance to introduce everyone at AEE to the unique aspects of your hometown, whether it’s found in the arts, the food, the drinks, or the music! Represent the place you call home in the silent auction by donating items that highlight the special qualities of your hometown.

If you are interested in bringing a basket to showcase your hometown or have questions, please email KC Ray at aggiekc02@yahoo.com for more information.

Your generosity and creativity in representing your hometown will help us provide conference scholarships to deserving individuals and enrich the larger AEE community.

Thank you for your support!

Leonie du Preez's Story 

“I am Leonie du Preez from Pretoria, South Africa. I am passionate about youth and holistic youth development. My company called Gro Life Coaching focus on Holistic youth development. We help youth to reach their full potential in four areas, namely body, mind, soul and spirit. We believe that if you understand, maintain and develop all areas of your life, you will reach your full potential.

Getting the 2023 Conference scholarship was the greatest gift after the pandemic. It was a great pleasure to travel, and to see and meet like-minded people who love nature and people. It was like family to share ideas and methodologies that can really help the youth who are challenged in so many areas, especially mental wellness. If not for the scholarship I would not have been there in person. It is unfortunately a very far trip. But the scholarship gave me the opportunity to travel to the USA.”

Donations are tax deductible.
