This is an organization in a near by town that send monthly packages to soilders, alot of them go to the hospital in Germany. Their monthly postage bill is $1500.00.
They had their first auction tonight that was a great success. My friend and I each donated an item, mine was a quilt that was in the live auction, it only went for $90.00, but that is OK. Next year I will make a larger one and make it in red white and blue instead of the gold I used this year. I did not know about the auction when I made the quilt or it would have been different.
I bid in the silent auction and won 2 items, both will be gifts. One is a Build-a-bear for my grandson, paid $14.
I am doing their craft fair in a week and donating 20% of my sales to the organization.
