WHAT IS A BLIND AUCTION ?

A blind auction is a simple and engaging way to raise funds while adding a bit of excitement. Instead of bidding openly, participants write down their bids for items on a sheet or submit them privately, without knowing what others have offered. Each item typically has a minimum starting bid and sometimes a suggested increment, but bidders are free to enter the amount they’re willing to pay. Once the auction closes, the highest bid wins the item.
