Great question!  It is our goal to answer the greatest needs first. We turn the money raised through our auctions into food and clothing donations to our charitable partners.

Our charitable partners are not-for-profit organizations, shelters, and efforts that serve within communities having the nation’s highest homeless populations. They are effective and positive resources to the homeless in their communities, and because of an overwhelming demand for their services they are in great need of resources.


We’re proud to announce our 2009 Charity Partner:


           Loaves and Fishes, Sacramento, CA

Without passing judgment, and in a spirit of love and hospitality, Loaves & Fishes feeds the hungry and shelters the homeless. They provide an oasis of welcome, safety, and cleanliness for homeless men, women and children seeking survival services.  They recognize the dignity and spiritual destiny of each person, and hope by their attitude of hospitality and love, to nourish not only the physical needs of those who come to Loaves & Fishes, but also their spiritual need for love, acceptance, respect, and friendship.
