Each year the United Fund's single largest fundraising event is our Auction, an event which has become one of the county's premier festivities. Whether it's tickets to a major event or concert, a craft designed by a local artist, or the perfect destination, the United Fund's volunteer-based Auction committee strives to bring unique items up for bid. Annually the evening's theme creates a lively atmosphere. The festivities begin with a hearty meal, then it's on to some lively bidding on the nearly 150 items donated by area businesses. Those in attendance have fun and bid with generous spirits, knowing that all proceeds go to benefit United Fund agencies.
