Silent Auction to Benefit the AHEAD Scholarship Program

An exciting part of each summer’s AHEAD conference is the silent auction. AHEAD members donate quality items from their college or university, hometown, something they have made, etc. to be bid on during the conference. The proceeds from the silent auction are used exclusively for student and member scholarships. Since 2002 nearly $40,000 has been raised for scholarships through the silent auction. We hope you will participate in this important endeavor.

The Staff & Board of Directors at AHEAD would like to invite you to be our guest and experience an evening at The Ali Center.

The Muhammad Ali Center celebrates the life and perseverance of the boxing great Muhammad Ali who grew up in Louisville, Kentucky. This is a cutting-edge, interactive education and cultural center, which was inspired by the ideals of its founder, Muhammad Ali.
