Events: Annual Auction

The Annual Benefit Auction, held each spring, is one of our largest fundraisers. Individuals, organizations and businesses donate various items to be auctioned off with all the proceeds going to Friend, Inc. It’s an evening of fun, food, and fellowship. Volunteers can contact and pick up auction donations from merchants, assist with clerical tasks, help set up and break down the hall and work the evening of the event.
