What’s it all about?

• Our annual spring auction is the largest fundraiser of the church year. Church members make the auction successful with their generous contributions and energetic bidding!
• The auction helps us make connections and builds community, offering many opportunities to get to know each other better throughout the year.  
• Half of the Auction proceeds, over the budgeted amount, will be donated to an organization selected by UUCWC’s Council for Faith in Action. This year’s recipient is the Bucks County Opportunity Council, the county’s lead food agency for families in need.

Contact the Auction Team at auction@uucwc.org with any questions.

Contributions: Contributions come from you, our members and friends. Food, events, and gift cards are popular things to offer. Given the pandemic and the church facility being currently closed, we are welcoming creative alternatives for in-person gatherings.  Or contribute a service, share a hobby or expertise. This does not have to be fancy or expensive. Many contributions are easy and affordable. The goal is to share what you love, teach what you know and learn more about each other.

Need some contribution ideas? We have them! Read more here.
