For the safety of our community and the individuals we serve, our Board of Directors has decided to cancel our in-person Vines & Steins fundraising event, which had been rescheduled for Saturday, September 12th. Canceling the in-person event was a difficult decision for our organization, as it is our largest fundraising event of the year!
Since we are unable to safely gather in person, we will be hosting an online auction as an alternative. As our organization transitions this into an online event, we would like to provide alternate ways for you to support the individuals we serve!
#1. Donate the Cost of Your Ticket
While the 2020 Vines & Steins in-person event has been canceled, you can choose to donate the cost of your ticket to benefit SOC or let us know if you’d like us to provide you with a refund. For refunds, tickets must be presented. Please contact Tori Leeser, Development Coordinator, at 608.723.6659 for details on the process.
#2. Score Something Awesome in Our Online Auction (September 12th – October 12th)
Just because we can’t meet doesn’t mean you can’t win a treat. We’re hosting an online auction from September 12th to October 12th. Get details, see what’s up for grabs, and place your bids on our auction page. https://www.charityauctionstoday.com/auctions/SOC-13744
