Description

Our church, St. Andrew United Methodist Church in Marietta, GA, is hosting a silent auction on Sunday, September 10, 2023, to raise money for the Andrew Christian School in Haiti, now known as Institution Mixte la Source du Rhema (school for training boys and girls in the will of God). Our school has been operating since 2005, which currently serves over 180 students, is located in a small community on the outskirts of Port-Au-Prince.

Our mission is to give children the opportunity to go to school where they can learn a Christian world and life view and how it affects decisions in their homes, their community and their country. The school provides a safe, loving, nurturing environment, meeting their educational needs during a time of very unsafe and dangerous conditions. Our church supports their efforts through the church budget, donations, and fundraisers.

We are requesting donations for our silent auction, such as a package for a family of four. 

We are a 501(c)(3) organization and our Federal Tax ID number is 58-1389230. This auction helps us raise money directly for the school and is attended by approximately 250 church members and friends. We advertise the list of donations and donors via mixed media in the weeks leading up to the event.
