Jeff Schwarz, owner of Direct Liquidation and Direct Auctions, is collaborating with major donors to support the Memorial Ribbon Society through a series of auctions scheduled throughout 2024. Known professionally as 'Jeff the Liquidator,' Schwarz has committed to conducting these fundraising events featuring donated items, with all proceeds directed to the Memorial Ribbon Society. This organization provides crucial support to families of fallen Police and Peace Officers across Canada, offering educational scholarships to their children and assistance to grieving families.
The upcoming third auction in this series is scheduled for Saturday, April 6, 2024, building upon the success of previous fundraising events. The auction items have been contributed by various partners of Schwarz and Direct Liquidation, demonstrating broad community support for this charitable initiative. Among the notable donations for the April 6 auction is a 'New Echelon Connect EX-4s Spin Bike with 25.5 cm (10-in.) HD Touch-screen Monitor and 1-year Subscription' contributed by Big Box Outlet Store, designated as LOT 10A in the auction catalog.
Schwarz has personally demonstrated his commitment to the cause by donating a 'New Frigidaire Retro Refrigerator 3.2 cu. ft., Black' with a retail value of $200 to the Memorial Ribbon Society, cataloged as LOT 10B. In discussing the importance of these auctions, Schwarz emphasized that successful bidders not only acquire valuable items but also contribute directly to supporting families and children of fallen law enforcement officers. He noted that participating in online auctions adds an engaging element of fun through live interaction with other bidders.
Participation in the auction process is designed to be accessible and free for all interested individuals. Potential bidders can easily sign up and begin bidding on available lots through the auction platform at https://www.directauctions.com. Throughout the remainder of 2024, Direct Auctions plans to continuously add new donated lots to each scheduled auction, ensuring a steady stream of support for the Memorial Ribbon Society's vital work. This ongoing partnership represents a significant commitment to supporting those who have lost family members in law enforcement service, providing both immediate assistance and long-term educational opportunities for affected children.
