• Once the online auction closes, we’ll contact you to confirm whether you’d like to appoint a volunteer to act as your proxy bidder at the Gala.
• Your proxy will bid on your behalf — up to your chosen limit — so you can stay in the game even if you can’t attend in person!
If your proxy wins the item:
• You’ll receive an invoice for the total amount due after the Gala.
• Once payment is received, we’ll help arrange shipping, delivery, or local pick-up, depending on your location.
• Please note that proxy winners located outside of Puerto Vallarta may need to cover an additional shipping fee for physical items.
