Crafting For a Cure presents “Uncorked Holiday Auction” a wine and gift basket silent auction taking place from November 25th to December 5, 2021, 9:00pm EST in support of two critically important causes- helping make hospital stays more manageable for children and supporting LDE Ontario’s Scholarship and Bursary program. 
Uncorked Holiday Auction invites Ontario residents, 19 years of age and older to bid on a wide variety of fantastic items, including wines, spirits, product packages, vacation stays, experiences and so much more!
​Wine enthusiasts, craft-lovers or those who embrace the opportunity to give back to the community, will find items to bid on. The event will be completely online, allowing participants to bid for items from the comfort of their own homes. 
Crafting For a Cure is a registered charity that collaborates with over 100 hospitals worldwide that looks to ensure all children have a positive experience whenever a hospital visit is necessary.
