    If you are part of a barn or have a group of horse friends, you could put together a barn gift basket of items to donate to ENYDCTA for us to sell in the auction. It would be fun.  


    How it works:

    *Contact Stephanie to donate an item, service, or group/barn basket to our online auction hosted by 32Auctions.com. 

    *You can go to 32Auctions to see your item and bid on other items or services.

    *Winnings will either be mailed at the winner’s expense or can be picked up at the banquet (decision to be made between winner and donator). 

    *The proceeds will go to ENYDCTA to help cover our expenses and to help reduce the costs of clinics & other educational programs.  


    Last year we auctioned off 51 items and raised nearly $3400 from 171 bids.  We could not have done this without the generous support of our donors.
