With nearly 200 people in attendance, the ECFA Annual Benefit Auction was a huge hit! We set a record with 1800 bids placed on the 200 silent auction items. We also exceeded last year’s total impact raising over $52,000.

Normally the live auction is the highlight of the evening, but this year that honor was shared with Virtuoso Strings, a group of highly skilled musicians who are in middle and high school. They entertained us both before and after dinner.

Cinnamon rolls, a handmade wooden flag, a Nintendo Switch were just some of the items on the live auction. As always, the live auction was full of excitement and laughter along with a little friendly competition generating over $6,000 of impact!

Every year our Spot Auction highlights a specific need of the agency. This year over 30 paddles were raised as individuals helped us achieve our goal, along with a matching grant from the ECFA Foundation, to raise $30,000 to purchase computer equipment.

Thank you to everyone who attended, bid, donated, and helped make this year’s auction a huge success. See you next year on November 8, 2024!
