Keeping It Kindled: Spring 2023 Auction
Our popular Spring Auction, UUCWC’s biggest fundraiser of the year, will be held online from April 29 through May 6, with items and price points for everyone!
- The Auction builds community, offering many opportunities for us to get to know each other better throughout the year.
- Your participation helps to make it successful: proceeds account for close to 10% of our operational budget.
- Best of all, half of the Auction proceeds over the budgeted amount will be donated to a social justice organization that enriches and empowers young people. This year’s recipient will be Snipes Farm and Education Center, a nonprofit that serves those in PA and NJ with a wide variety of assistance: food insecurity, good nutrition, education, and sustaining the Earth and her resources. More info here: Snipes Farm and Education Center.
