In order to raise the most funds possible for our designated charity each year, we host several charity events throughout the show, including our main auction on Sunday morning through the afternoon. Saturday morning, we will have the items for Sunday’s auction on display.
Charity Submissions
We welcome all submissions for the Charity Auctions, held throughout Dragon Con weekend.
Without donations from people just like you, we would not be able to help local charities around Atlanta, consistently raising over $100,000 each year for the past five years. Remember your donation helps us raise $2 for every $1 with Dragon Con’s company match up to $125,000!
If you’d like to help, we would love to have you donate an item for us to sell at the charity auction. Items sold at past charity auctions have included: books, comic books, artwork, signed photos, movie props, prop replicas, toys, games, costumes, DVD players, computers, TVs, store and restaurant gift cards, weekend getaways at hotels, site visits to the “live” set of a TV series, a meal with an actor or writer, a writing review by an editor, inclusion (Tuckerization) in an upcoming book, and much more. If you have an idea for something you’d like to donate and would like to discuss it, contact us at charityevents@staging.dragoncon.org
Auction Item Mailing Address
If you would like to send an item (or items) for this year’s event, please send them to:
Dragon Con Charity Events
Dragon Con

Please include your contact information (name and email or street address) for donation tracking purposes. Our computer system this year allows us to track all donations so we can send out receipts to everyone that made a donation (if you wish to donate anonymously, please let us know).
Auction Item Drop-off
If you are unable to send your donation to us before the convention, we will have a Charity Events Booth open Thursday: 2-6, Friday, Saturday, Sunday: 10-6, and Monday: 10-2. The booth is in the Marriott Hotel, one floor below the hotel registration desk. At the booth, we will be displaying items that have been donated, as well as accepting additional donated items. If you need help with your donation, come by the booth and we will have a staff member go with you to pick up the item.
As always, we thank you for your generosity.
