The National Cartoonists Society Foundation and the Kenosha Festival of Cartooning are passionate about supporting children’s charities. As part of festival 2014 we are raising money for Children’s Hospitals of Wisconsin’s Kenosha Clinic and Open Wings – a learning community for children with autism and other learning challenges.

We have many, many desirable and rare items in this auction but, if you don't see anything you wish to bid on - or the prices are out of your budget - and you still wish to support these charities, feel free to make a donation of any amount and click the "no perk" box.

The benefit auction includes original cartoon art, illustrations and collectible ephemera and will happen in two phases:

Online bidding at “buy it now” prices only

• ·      When: From September 13-25 2014
  
• ·      Where: Here on Indiegogo
  
• ·      How: Items will be listed as “perks” at their “buy it now” price
  
• o   To buy an item select your “perk” and pay via paypal or credit card (you can use major credit cards via paypal)
  
• o   Only 20 items can be listed at a time so items will be rotated over the course of the 12 days of the online auction
  
• o   Any item unclaimed for more than 3 days will be rotated out – it may come back later but don’t take this for granted
  
• o   All unclaimed items will then go to live auction September 27 2014

We have some AMAZING items here and all the money is going to a good cause! We ask that you remember these items are being sold for charity -this is not the sort of auction where you will "get a deal" but you will raise money for two great children's charities in Kenosha.
