Donate an Item or Experience
The funds raised from the auction portion of the Spring Benefit contribute significantly to Evergreen's annual fundraising goal, and there would be no auction without your support and creativity! Think about adventures and experiences that you love or that might be unique to your neighborhood. Have a favorite staycation spot, or access to unique behind-the-scenes experiences? Perhaps you have hobbies you can teach and share? If you want to participate but need some ideas, please reach out to [email protected].
