What is a Chinese Auction?
It's a chance to win terrific prizes while supporting the important work of the Jewish Heritage Center. Stores, vendors and generous individuals have graciously donated goods and services to be used as prizes. These prizes have been grouped into packages and are listed in this booklet, categorized by their value. You may purchase tickets for any prize package that interests you. If your ticket is drawn on the night of the Auction, you win those prizes! For your convenience, an order form has been included at the end of this booklet. You may purchase individual tickets or take advantage of the bonuses and discounts offered.
Important Halachic Note:
According to most poskim (authorities of Jewish law), even a single ticket inappropriately placed into a raffle or auction may render the entire drawing invalid. The only feasible way, therefore, to conduct a large public auction is to rely on the fact that participation is with the understanding that they are relying on the good faith efforts of the sponsoring organization to do all it can do to maintain the security and integrity of the event. Should an inappropriate ticket slip by (or a paid ticket be omitted), the participants have accepted this possibility and release the sponsoring charity and the prize winners of any claim. Rest assured that we try to be as vigilant as possible to avoid this from happening. Nonetheless, we ask for your understanding for anything that might slip by.
Important! All drawings are final and prizes are not exchangeable except where noted. Additional restrictions apply to some prizes. Some prizes may require assembly. We cannot assume responsibility for printing errors, omissions, vendors no longer in business or discontinued goods or services. JHC assumes no responsibility for the kashrus of any prize, product or service. All warranties and/or guarantees are the responsibility of the manufacturer alone. Prizes subject to exchange for prizes of equal or greater value. No purchase necessary. Prizes are valid for one year's time. Prizes must be claimed within four weeks of the drawing, unless otherwise indicated. Taxes and applicable fees on prizes are the responsibility of the winner. Some prizes have delivery charges. Orders received after the Auction will be treated as a charitable contribution to JHC. Some photos are for illustrative purposes only.
