Convention 2026 Donations and Auctions

Join us for our next convention, to be held on November 5-8, 2026, at the Garden City Hotel in Garden City, New York. Visit our Event page Sitting Pretty in Garden City to learn all the latest details about the convention. This post is specifically for those who would like to make a contribution, whether or not they are attending the convention.

We are currently trying to raise funds that will help to offset the various costs of our convention, thus enabling us to keep fees down and make it more affordable. One way of doing this is to hold weekly auctions on eBay, selling items of a distinctly Wodehousean nature. News of these auctions is posted on our convention Facebook page, on PGWnet, and here.

There is currently no auction taking place. Check back here or on the Facebook page for the next listing.

We are also requesting direct donations according to the following levels of giving: Corky, $1-$99; Bertie, $100-$249; Psmith, $250-$499; Gally, $500-$999; Uncle Fred, $1,000. (Note that the characters are listed not in order of their wealth but by the amount of sweetness and light they can be counted on to spread.) Donations can also be made in honor or memory of someone. Any size of donation will be gratefully received, and donors do not need to attend the convention in order to contribute. All donors will be listed in the convention program, unless they prefer anonymity. To learn how you can make a contribution, write to the Convention Committee Chair.
