it wouldn't really matter to me if you were related. I communicate with A LOT of people in this club & not once has someone offered some rumor that you two were related. You're doing something nice for someone...that's GREAT!

I will offer a suggestion or two as I have run several of these charitable auctions & such over the past year: you need to post daily, you need to post scans (or links to other posts that have scans) & I have found that if you start with one auction (may be for several items) that if you note that you will add something new if it gets to $XXX, sometimes that garners more interest.

It's a very nice thing that you are doing for Mark & Tonya. Don't be discouraged by the results so far, as you're putting forth a nice effort. Money's tight & there's lotsa stuff for sale here recently.
