I seen on here about Elite Island Resort. This may have already been asked but... 1. Is this a to goo to be true donation? 2. Looking at there website it ask what you would like them to donate and to tell them why. We are one PTO for 2 schools. We are having our silent auction a long with our carnival. Thanks for your help.

Katie: Try the Essex Inn in Chicago they gave us a 2 night stay last year. We are a small public school in Central IL. Also try Chicago Chocolate Tours if you haven't yet.

Cooper: We get Eric Carle, Jan Bret & Mo Willems books/posters every year

Katie, where did you get contact information for Jeff Kinney? Did you contact the publisher or someone else? Thanks!

We told SeaWorld we had hotel and most people(including myself) would be driving and not flying. I guess that was enough . Amtrak was a no for us. Jeff Kinney sent us a set of diary of wimpy kid books.

Thank you Diana, I will try that.

Cooper- Robert munsch donated an autographed children's book to us but that was the only author I have had success with thus far. I've sent to many but haven't received responses from them.

Has anyone had luck getting children's authors to donate books?
