CAAO is once again is preparing have its 3rd annual Online Silent Executive Auction. The auction allows bidders to bid on the time of some of Northeast Ohio's top executives. Last year the Boston Globe interviewed CAAO because they thought this was a very unique fundraiser. The executive’s donations range from one hour of their time to a day with them. This year CAAO is adding more national executives to the auction. CAAO is looking to have 55 executives in the auction. This year Black Enterprise Magazine has agreed to give the auction national exposure

Is there and executive in Northeast Ohio you would like to have one on one face time with? Please share your thoughts. CAAO is still developing the list for 2006.
