The B.A.B.Y. Foundation started the annual Christmas Tree/Wreath Auction in 2007.
Four foot artificial trees or wreaths of any size are decorated with a theme
and donated by businesses, families, and individuals who would like to participate.
Gifts and/or items are placed under the trees to match the theme. The wreaths
and trees are then sold by silent auction. A few particularly amazing trees
are sold in an exciting live auction setting.
In 2009, business owners, families, and individuals generously donated 35 trees
and 18 wreaths, generating over $16,000.00 for the familes of our recipients.
We would would sincerely like to thank
last year's tree and wreath donors
for participating in our most successful event yet!
This year's tree and wreath auction promises to be even better than the last. Special
accommodations are being made to entertain the children so that parents can focus
on their bidding.
Please join us in our annual celebration, or better yet,
register to donate a tree or wreath for auction. Once
the value of your tree has been determined, fill out our
tree valuation form so that we can send you a tax donation
receipt.
