A "Causes" Application for Twitter, free online auction capability

By Abny Santicola

Holding the auction on IDonateToCharity.org allows people from anywhere to bid on items on an ongoing basis. As auction items are secured by the youths, Dehmlow adds them to the site.

The online raffle component of the site cuts out a lot of the hassle of traditional raffles, where all of the sold ticket stubs must be accounted for before the raffle drawing can take place. St. Peter’s has about 40 youths trying to sell a minimum of 40 tickets each; that's at least 1,600 ticket stubs that have to be arranged in numerical order before the drawing.
