Through all the changes we face together, The Garage remains a liaison between the community and our families. Our mission of supporting youth academically, relationally, and spiritually to pursue their highest potential remains unwavering. For over two decades, The Garage has been a cornerstone in the Kennett Square and West Grove communities and has proudly expanded to the Avondale community in 2022 through the purchase of our new space! Through tutoring, mentoring, computer lab access, recreation and special programs, some of our community’s most “at-risk” middle and high school students are finding the necessary support to reach their full potential.

On Saturday, December 3, 2022, The Garage will be hosting our 13th Annual Holiday Auction-- a fundraiser where more than 300 local supporters will enjoy a silent auction, and some of Chester County’s finest foods, wines and beers. With the continued success of hybrid auction options, we will be offering the same opportunity to bid from the comfort of your home or use your phone as your bid sheet live at the auction event!

The Garage is excited to host the 2022 Holiday Auction in person and celebrate the joyous season with friends and partners. As a member of our community, we would love for you to partner with The Garage by donating an item or gift certificate for our auction.

 We are excited to expand our services and support as we settle into our new home in the heart of the Avondale borough. This new space will provide a brick-and-mortar home for hope, support, and services to youth and the community. There are lots of changes to be made to the space to ensure we provide the highest quality service, making it feel like Santa’s Workshop! The generosity provided through the 13th Annual Holiday Auction will not only support existing Garage programs but the transformation of our incredible new space!

We’re counting on the whole community to come together to help students reach their potential and celebrate the incredibly resiliency demonstrated by our neighbors, friends, and partners.
