A winning bid can help build a stronger bond.

Welcome to our Fall Silent Auction, an online silent auction supporting Beards & Braids! Explore items and experiences generously donated by our supporters, place your bids, and help create meaningful opportunities for dads and daughters to connect.

Beards & Braids is a growing community in the Salem, Oregon area helping dads and father figures build stronger relationships with their daughters through shared experiences, intentional time together, and encouragement from other dads.

Another way to join the fun: our 50/50 drawing!

Purchase tickets for a chance to win half of the total ticket sales, while the other half supports Beards & Braids and helps keep father-daughter gatherings free or affordable. The more tickets sold, the bigger the prize and the greater the support for local families! You don’t need to bid on an auction item or attend in person to participate. One winner will be selected at random and notified directly.

Funds raised through this auction will help support:

• Father-daughter gatherings and activities that create lasting memories.
• Event expenses, including venue rentals, supplies, admission fees, and food.
• Financial assistance so more families can participate.
• Essential operating costs that keep our community organized and growing.

Our mission is simple: helping dads show up and daughters grow strong.

Whether you bid, donate, or share this auction with friends, you’re helping build a community where fathers find encouragement and daughters know they matter.

Thank you to the businesses, individuals, and bidders who make this possible. Your generosity helps turn shared experiences into stronger relationships.

Find something you love, place your bid, and help us build stronger bonds!
