Description

Our church is hosting a Spring Fundraiser and we are looking for bigger ticket listings for our Silent Auction. We find that experiences/outings raise more money than physical items. There will be a silent auction with items online, but also a  select few items for in-person bids only. We have many families with young children, but also empty nesters. A broad range of options is encouraged.

 

We have a goal to raise $20,000 for various internal missions and non-profit organizations we are involved with. Some of these initiatives include homelessness, food insecurity, Ukraine relief, rapid reponse to migrants, mental health, reconciliation, and many more. This fundraiser will have a trivia component and each table will have a theme according to a different mission.
