San Benito Community Auction
Community Foundation to Host Online Auction Again!
Mark your calendars! The Community Foundation for San Benito County is proud to host the second county-wide virtual auction to benefit participating nonprofits in San Benito County. The Auction, called the San Benito Community Auction, will take place on August 27th through the 30th. This is a completely online event that will feature a variety of bidding items provided by our local nonprofits. Last year, the Foundation hosted the first ever event which featured 44 participating nonprofits and over 209 exciting auction items. Together with a match from the Community Foundation, the Auction raised over $132,000 for our local nonprofit organizations.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the majority of nonprofits have had to cancel or scale back their traditional fundraisers. The Community Auction is an opportunity for people to still support their favorite San Benito County organizations in a fun and healthy way. The Community Foundation has purchased the software for this event and will provide all of the administrative services to the nonprofits.
Registered 501(c) nonprofits interested in participating in this event should contact the Community Foundation for San Benito County: email at [email protected] or by calling 831-630-1924.
