Auction for Education 2025 Now Open – And You Can Help!
Feeling lucky? Or generous? How about both?
From June 16 through June 30, the Green Scholarship Program is rolling out its annual Auction for Education, giving everyone a shot at scoring everything from exotic getaways to one-of-a-kind donated items. But this isn’t just about winning a trip or a prize. It’s about winning a future—for a student who’s counting on a little support to keep their dreams in motion.
For nearly two decades, the Green Scholarship Program has been investing in something that never goes out of style: education. Since 2006, they’ve helped 260 young adults in Baja California Sur pursue university degrees and vocational training. Not bad for a local nonprofit that relies entirely on donor support and community generosity.
“This year, we’re hoping to raise $40,000,” says Vanessa Figueroa, Executive Director of the Green Scholarship Program. “Every bid, every donation, every share on social media—it all helps us get closer to that goal.”
The online auction is live and easy to access. Just click here and check out the goodies. Whether you’re in the market for a luxury weekend, a golf day, original artwork, or even something quirky (there’s always at least one oddball item), you’ll find something worth bidding on.
And if shopping isn’t your thing, there’s always the old-fashioned route: donate directly. No waiting, no bidding wars, just good karma and a receipt.
The Green Scholarship Program focuses on long-term impact. Their scholars don’t just receive financial aid—they also get guidance, mentoring, and access to a support network that helps them stay on track and thrive, even after graduation. Many graduates return the favor by mentoring incoming students, proving that giving back really is contagious.
As Vanessa puts it, “Education has a ripple effect. When one young person earns a degree, their whole family benefits. Their community benefits. It’s not just a diploma—it’s a multiplier of hope.”
In a region where access to higher education isn’t always easy or affordable, the work GSP does matters. A lot.
So, if you’re looking for a way to give back to your Baja community this summer, skip the bake sale and head to the auction block. You might walk away with a vacation, a great bottle of wine, or something you didn’t even know you needed—but more importantly, you’ll be helping a local student write their next chapter.
The Auction for Education runs from June 16 to June 30, and every bid helps build a better future. That’s a win-win if we’ve ever seen one.
