The IEA Children's Fund Silent Auction depends on one thing above all else: the generosity and creativity of IEA locals. Right now, we’re asking members and locals across the state to begin collecting items to donate to the auction and help ensure another successful fundraiser for Idaho students.
Every donated item helps raise critical funds for the Idaho Education Association Children’s Fund, which provides emergency support to students facing unexpected hardship.
Start Collecting Donations Now
Start now by identifying and collecting items your local can donate to the Silent Auction. Popular and high-impact items include:
- Gift baskets (classroom supplies, self-care, coffee, local favorites)
- Experiences (vacation stays, tickets, lessons, tours)
- Locally made goods, art, or crafts
- Donations from community businesses
- Educator-themed or school-spirit items
Items of all sizes and values are welcome — creativity counts!
Donation Registration & Drop-Off Details
Register and drop off donated items on the first day of Delegate Assembly:
Friday, April 17
7 - 9:30 a.m.

Each contribution — whether through a donation or a donated auction item — helps continue this tradition of compassionate, direct impact in communities across Idaho.
