Auction Items Needed for the Mustang Social Spring Fundraiser
This year, we will once again hold the Mustang Social Spring Fundraiser silent auction online and we want to use it as an opportunity to support businesses in Petaluma. With this goal in mind, we are inviting families who can do so to help us by donating gift cards to local businesses and other items.
Here are ways you can support this event:
- Use this Sign Up Genius link and select a local business to support by purchasing a gift card to be part of our online auction. Gift card sign ups start at $10. If there are any favorite local businesses that you’d like to support that aren’t included in this list, please feel free to drop off a gift card to that business instead.
- Donate a cash amount for us to use to purchase items from Petaluma businesses to include in the online auction
- Email if you have any items (wine, gift baskets, art, etc.), vacation homes, experiences or buy-in event connections you can donate!
We’ll be collecting donations at the McKinley office from April 12 to April 23. The auction will open on May 12 and close on May 16.
