Pediatric Hydrocephalus Foundation to Host Quarter Auction on May 18

WESTHAMPTON — The Pediatric Hydrocephalus Foundation (PHF) of Massachusetts invites the public to a fundraising quarter auction on Sunday, May 18 from 2 to 5 p.m. at Shaker Farms Country Club in Westfield.

Hydrocephalus is an incurable brain condition that affects more than 1 million Americans. PHF is dedicated to helping fund hand-picked research projects to better understand, treat, and hopefully cure this life-threatening condition.

A quarter auction is an interactive fundraising method that offers participants a chance to win valuable items while supporting a good cause like PHF. Attendees purchase numbered bidding paddles and use quarters to bid on displayed items.

Admission (available at the door only) is $5 for two paddles, and includes a door prize ticket. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own quarters, as only a limited amount will be available to purchase at the event.
