Bidding Open for the ICUEE 2017 Benefit Auction for Call of Duty Endowment
Online bidding is now open for the ICUEE 2017 benefit auction, which will help connect military veterans with industry jobs.
ICUEE, The Demo Expo invites all utility and construction professionals to participate in the event: 100 percent of the proceeds go to the Call of Duty Endowment, the nonprofit organization founded by Bobby Kotick, CEO of Activision Blizzard.
The Endowment uses a performance-driven approach to fund organizations delivering the highest standards of quality and cost-efficient veteran job-placement services. It notes that every $619 raised helps a veteran obtain a good job.
At ICUEE 2017, the live auction takes place from noon to 2 p.m. Oct. 5 at the ICUEE Demo Stage Presented by Benjamin Media Inc.

ICUEE 2017 runs October 3-5 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville, Kentucky.
Bid on a variety of items from drones to vacation packages to an array of tools and equipment and much more – new items will be added up until show time, so check back often. The auction will not have minimums or reserves (all items will be sold).
“The Call of Duty Endowment does great work, and this benefit auction is one way we can help their mission and support those who have served our country,” said Tricia Mallett, ICUEE show director. “And while we encourage all industry professionals to attend ICUEE, with the online bidding you can still join the industry in giving back even if you can’t be at the live event.”
