Welcome To The Auction!

The Florida Helps Foundation provides skills, experience and services to support the startup and operation of non-profit businesses and we raise funds for selected Florida charities. We are an IRS-approved 501(c)(3) non-profit organization (Tax ID # 45-2651770) incorporated in the State of Florida. We are also proudly a service disabled veteran-managed small business.

We "Help U Help Others" by providing services, tools and support for non-profit formation (State and IRS approval), management consulting, fundraising support, financial analysis and control, event planning, etc.  Our annual fundraising event is the Fort Myers BACK BAY BASH, raising funds for our own PADLS Program (Persons with Autism or Disabilities Learn to Swim)! 

Drowning is the #1 cause of death for autistic and special needs kids under the age of 15!  Thru our PADLS Program, we teach autistic and special needs kids basic water safety and swimming skills to fight this terrible statistic. This on-line Auction will raise funds to sustain and hopefully expand our PADLS Program. By expanding our PADLS Program beyond our 1st pilot program location in Cape Coral,FL, we hope to save the lives of hundreds, if not thousands, of autistic and special needs kids across Florida!

Keep in mind ... this is for Charity!  It's OK to bid ABOVE the listed value of each item!  Winning bidders will get an IRS Tax Deduction form!
