Our auction tradition

Our Spring Auction plays a vital role in sustaining the programs and services that support working families and community members throughout the year. Every bid helps provide critical assistance to those facing financial hardship while strengthening the spirit of community that drives our work. We invite you to browse and bid on the incredible items generously donated by our supporters, partners, and local businesses.

Ways to support us during spring & summer

During spring through to Labor Day, we focus on a variety of targeted partnerships & fundraisers. We welcome your support in whatever manner you wish to offer it, including:

  • Donate an item, basket, or service to be auctioned (by June 12)

  • Volunteer to help with donation outreach, event coordination, or display set-up

  • Bid during the auction!

  • Make a cash donation via our givebutter.com page or send us a check

  • Plan a fundraising event to support our hardship funds

For the winners

If you win an item, we will get in touch with you as soon as possible to arrange transfer of your items!

  • Please confirm that your payment for the item has been processed

  • Three options: Drop off, Pick up, or Mail (when possible)

  • Auction winners who are attending the Labor Appreciation Dinner** can approach an LCSA staff member to confirm payment & pick up their item after 8 pm

** Please note! Tickets are required for entry to the Dinner; you may not enter the facility to pick up your items unless you have a ticket. Tickets sales for this year have closed.
